Mission

Our mission is to ensure that every member of every school community is valued and respected regardless of sexual orientation, gender identity or gender expression.

About

As GLSEN was founded by a group of teachers in 1990, we knew that educators play key roles in creating affirming learning environments for LGBTQ youth. But as well as activating supportive educators, we believe in centering and uplifting student-led movements, which have powered initiatives like the Day of Silence, Ally Week, and more. We conduct extensive and original research to inform our evidence-based solutions for K-12 education. We author developmentally appropriate resources for educators to use throughout their school community. We advise on, advocate for, and research comprehensive policies designed to protect LGBTQ students as well as students of marginalized identities. We’ve brought record support to the Safe Schools Improvement Act and the Student Non-Discrimination Act and fought discriminatory legislation in over 15 states. We coordinate a network of 43 chapters in 30 states across the nation, to ensure that we have access to schools and districts across the country to reach every student. We empower students to affect change by supporting student-led efforts to positively impact their own schools and local communities, and have thousands of registered GSAs nationwide. Today, after over 25 years of leading the movement, GLSEN’s national network is more than 1.5 million strong, with students, families, educators, and education advocates working to create safe schools. More than 500,000 GLSEN resources are downloaded by students and educators each year. Every day GLSEN works to ensure that LGBTQ students are able to learn and grow in a school environment free from bullying and harassment. Together, we can transform our nation’s K-12 schools into the safe and affirming environment all youth deserve.

Interesting data from their 2020 990 filing

When referring to its actions, they were described as: “Glsen is dedicated to ending the victimization of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and questioning (lgbtq) youth in k-12 schools because no young person should have to choose between their wellbeing and an education. 57.6% of lgbtq youth feel unsafe at school because of their sexual orientation, gender expression, or gender identity and, as a result, are less likely to reach their full academic or personal potential. glsen's programs, campaigns, and initiatives improve education experiences and life outcomes for marginalized students by clearing a path to leadership, transforming the school systems, and ensuring that all students have access to an education in a safe, inclusive environment, free from harassment and discrimination. since 1990, glsen has measurably improved school climate for lgbtq students in the us, and reduced the discrimination they face in our schools, while inspiring and sustaining the growth of global safe schools movement. please join us in this work.”.
