It is Getting Better

    Have you taken the pledge? Everyone deserves to be respected for who they are. I pledge to spread this message to my friends, family and neighbors. I’ll speak up against hate and intolerance whenever I see it, at school and at work. I’ll provide hope for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and other bullied teens by letting them know that it gets better. Sign on up at itgetsbetter.org to support LGBTQ children and help teens live a bully- free life! Join the hundreds of thousands of people who have taken the It Gets Better Pledge.
