NEW REPORT – Human Rights Campaign

The report, A Call to Action: LGBTQ Youth Need inclusive Sex Education, was authored and endorsed by Advocates for Youth, Answer, Black & Pink, the Equality Federation, GLSEN, the Human Rights Campaign, the National LGBTQ Task Force, Planned Parenthood Federation of America, SIECUS: Sex Ed for Social Change, and URGE: Unite for Reproductive & Gender Equity and provides guidance for parents and families, youth, educators, and policymakers to:

  • Become advocates for LGBTQ+-inclusive sex education;
  • Ensure that school is a safe and accepting space for LGBTQ+ students;
  • Implement LGBTQ+-inclusive sex education in schools, community settings and online;
  • Talk to their own children and teens about sex and sexuality; and
  • Work to remove state-level legal and policy barriers to LGBTQ+-inclusive sex education in schools and to require inclusive programs.

Tonight at 5p.m. EST, HRC will be hosting an Instagram Live between Ellen Kahn, HRC Senior Director of Programs and Partnerships, and Nakiya Lynch, HRC 2021 Youth Ambassador, to discuss the importance of inclusive and diverse sexual education programs and curricula.

The Human Rights Campaign Foundation is the educational arm of the Human Rights Campaign (HRC), America’s largest civil rights organization working to achieve equality for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer (LGBTQ) people. Through its programs, the HRC Foundation seeks to make transformational change in the everyday lives of LGBTQ people, shedding light on inequity and deepening the public’s understanding of LGBTQ issues, with a clear focus on advancing transgender and racial justice. Its work has transformed the landscape for more than 15 million workers, 11 million students, 600,000 clients in the adoption and foster care system and so much more. The HRC Foundation provides direct consultation and technical assistance to institutions and communities, driving the advancement of inclusive policies and practices; it builds the capacity of future leaders and allies through fellowship and training programs; and, with the firm belief that we are stronger working together, it forges partnerships with advocates in the U.S. and around the globe to increase our impact and shape the future of our work.
