I learned about the It Gets Better Project today. It was started in 2010 to help LGBTQ youth by letting them know that the challenges they face in their teens, because of who they are, won’t last forever—things will get better. Now the Its Get Better Project consists of more than 50,000 videos, which have been viewed by more than 50 million people. The videos are moving. To see the here’s the link to the project, http://www.itgetsbetter.org/.
