2017: A Year of Inspiring LGBTQ+ Youth

Year In Review

I believe in a world where hope outshines fear. I commit to stand up and speak out against hate and intolerance.

My support for LGBTQ youth will be steadfast. I am part of a global community that is proud and resolute in its efforts to create a brighter, more inclusive world for all people.

I know it will get better.
