This year alone we've seen more than 200 anti-LGBTQ+ youth bills filed. We need leaders who will rise up and fight back. Thank you to the Members of Congress who are championing inclusion and safety in our nation's schools. #RiseUp4LGBTQ+

Thank you to all of our supporters who donated to GLSEN Chapters this #GiveOUTDay.
Today, you joined thousands of folks across the country in showing your support for LGBTQ+ students.

In the middle, there is black text that reads Thank you! Underneath is the GLSEN logo. In the bottom left corner, there is the Give OUT Day logo with the date, June 30, 2021, underneath.

As the lead engineer on the @MTHSTrainer robotics team, Roger Richardson has always loved solving complex problems. So it makes sense that after graduating from McKinley Tech, Roger will study mechanical engineering at @ColoradoStateU. #DCPSGoesToCollege
