What Can We Do To Help Transgender Youth

There are actually a lot of things that we can do to help out the transgender youth.

  • We can step for awareness
  • we can create support groups at school for the LGBTQ community
  • Encourage respect in the student population toward the LGBTQ community
  • Have "safe spaces", such as a counselor's office, available for LGBTQ students to find refuge if they feel threatened
  • Bring in psychologists who are familiar with LGBTQ issues to speak to victims and bullies alike
  • When it comes to the bathroom we could have the students who are transgender, if comfortable, talk to the office and their teachers about using a staff or one stall bathroom so that there won't be any problems between anyone
  • When a student or the student's parent or guardian, as appropriate, notifies the school administration that the student will assert a gender identity that differs from previous representations or records
  • Some schools that have implemented transgender policies have made a single-stall or staff restroom available for students who are uncomfortable sharing facilities with their transgender peers
  • If you or someone close to you has experienced bullying or discrimination, you can start by talking about it with your school and district officials
  • You can file a complaint with the U.S. Department of Education
