LGBTQIA+ youth are not safe – but you can help

We don’t need to sugarcoat it for you. LGBTQIA+ youth are under attack in this country.54% of LGBTQ+ youth in Massachusetts experienced some form of discrimination, and 20% experienced a physical attack last year, according to The Trevor Project.

Dangerous national rhetoric around queer and trans issues make the world a scary place for our youth.

You can help us show youth that there are people who care about them.

Even here in Central Massachusetts youth face high levels of anxiety, depression, eating disorders, discrimination, and even physical attacks.

You can help us lower these numbers by giving to Safe Homes, so more trainings can be provided to schools, workplaces and organizations.

Please give today so youth can find safety at Safe Homes, and the resources they need to protect against discrimination in their daily lives.
