Youth Voices: Class of 2025

Attention LGBTQ+ youth ages 13-18: Applications are OPEN for our next class of Youth Voices! If you’re an LGBTQ+ teen activist, educator, content creator, artist, writer, or performer, we want to add your voice to this amazing group to speak up for queer youth across the United States.

This past year, our Youth Voices Class of 2024 did some amazing things, like:

• Wrote a National Coming Out Day op-ed for Teen Vogue!

• Got interviewed by major news outlets like Associated Press, CNN, USA Today, ABC News, NBC News, BBC, and more.

• Curated and edited selections for our first book in nearly 13 years, Queerbook, which is on sale in May.

• Coordinated, created, and led their own workshops for student grant recipients at schools throughout the United States.

• Wrote an open letter to lawmakers, school board officials, and more about the issues facing trans youth in this country, boldly declaring that “Trans Youth Deserve Better.”

• Met each other in person at our Youth Summit in Los Angeles.

And more! Want to join? Apply now through Monday, May 20th at itgetsbetter.org/YouthVoices.
