Come Out For Our Youth

Hi there

Looking at the headlines in the last month has me horrified. There have been four instances of LGBTQQ Youths and those perceived to be who have taken their lives after bullying in their schools. The ages range from 13 to 18 and the locations are everywhere in the US. This is devastating news!! And we must come out for our youth now to put a stop to this.

We can put all our attention to marriage, to the military, to the workplace, to whatever is our personal favorite issue but what good is it if we create these things and there is no future generation to keep it going?

So..

A week of nationwide events are taking place to Come Out For Our Youth. We are focusing on remembering the youth that have taken their lives because of bullying, calling nationwide attention to the huge problem of bullying in our schools and calling for the legislation for safe schools to be passed. This is all happening from Oct 5 up to Oct 11, Coming Out Day.

The week from October 5th and leading up to October 11, Coming Out Day is a week to

1)Remember those Youth that we have lost because of bullying in schools,

2)Come out and show support for the LGBTQQ Youth now with It Gets Better and other ways

3)Come out and call on our congress and senate to pas the Safe Schools Act to end bullying now

Stay tuned for more info..
