Student Safety
Each student has a right to feel safe and be celebrated. We try to make this happen by
- supporting over 78 Gay Straight Alliances and 250-300 student leaders in South Central Wisconsin through direct contact and youth conferences
- working in partnership with the Department of Public Instruction to lead workshops on LGBT issues and anti-bullying throughout the state for school professionals through Cooperative Education Service Agencies (CESAs)
- partnering with the Madison Metropolitan School District to lead sessions on Bystanders to Allies (B2A), a middle school anti-bullying program developed by Wisconsin Public Television
Each gift makes a difference. Thank you for supporting our mission to make schools safe for LGBT students and all youth!
