Day of Silence: April 25, 2008

What are you going to do to end the silence?

On April 25, students from middle school through college will join together to raise awareness of the "silencing" of GLTB youth through harassment and bullying.

Homegrown and student-led, the Day of Silence movement asks GLTB youth and their allies to take a vow of silence for a single day. By choosing not to speak, Day of Silence participants express the daily reality experienced by gay, lesbian, transgendered and bisexual youth.
