LGBT Youth--Speak Out About Your School Experiences!

The 2009 National School Climate Survey is GLSEN's sixth national survey of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender youth. It is a crucial tool in GLSEN's mission for fighting anti-LGBT bias in K-12 schools across the nation. The information gathered from this survey will help GLSEN to lobby and advocate for the rights of all students to be treated with respect in their schools. Many students in the past have also used the survey information to advocate with their teachers and principals for safer schools for LGBT students.

If you attended high school or middle school sometime during the last school year (2008-2009), identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer or questioning, and are at least 13 years old, tell us about your experiences in school. (If you did not complete the entire school year you are still eligible.) The survey is completely anonymous.
