Description

Violence against lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) people can range from bullying in school to workplace harassment to physical violence.

Some LGBT people are actually beaten and killed for being who they are.

LGBT youth face serious problems with bullying and harassment in America's schools. What should be a safe place for learning is instead often dangerous and isolating for many students — gay or straight — who regularly face verbal and physical attacks.

In a study commissioned by the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network (GLSEN), 4 out of 5 LGBT students reported experiencing harassment frequently in school based on their appearance or perceived sexual orientation. GLSEN found that inclusive anti-bullying and harassment policies, supportive school faculty and the presence of school clubs like Gay-Straight Alliances are all factors that lead to safer schools and better school performance.

Rejection and peer pressure can often lead to thoughts of suicide.

As a mother of an LGBT child, I know these issues first hand. I will stand up to protect and advocate for my child and LGBT group.
