All universities should be invested in inclusive growth and uphold promises made to queer folks. As listed above, these are just a few of the many critical solutions necessary to improve the quality of life of all people and move toward accountability for mistakes that have caused significant harm to our community. We urge you to be bold, embody our university’s forward-leading spirit, and take the next steps to create meaningful change. Please consider signing this petition so that SHU can truly become an empowering and supportive environment for all. Thank you. With Love & Pride, The SHU Gender Sexuality Alliance (GSA)

My principle and school staff have denied us a GSA on multiple occasions, and have not done anything to stop the bulling and harassment that has happened in the past years. the curriculum is not inclusive and they have practically ignored hate crimes. A Genders & Sexualities Alliance club, or GSA, would provide a much-needed safe place for students to meet, support each other, talk about issues related to sexual orientation and gender identity, and work to create positive change on campus. Under the Federal Equal Access Act (http://www.gsanetwork.org/federal-equal-access-act), any school that receives government funding and has at least one other non-curricular club is legally required to also allow a GSA. Legally, public schools with other clubs must let students start a GSA -- and must treat the GSA like any other student club! Schools can't make up rules that only apply to the GSA and nobody else. GSAs have been proven to make schools safer for all students. Allow us to start a GSA so that ALL students can succeed.

The wave of anti-trans and anti-queer legislation both directly targets TQ youth and strengthens efforts to rollback the rights of all historically marginalized and "othered" communities. We need to not only stop these anti-TQ bills, but transform our culture toward community and collective freedom. State and local organizers have been busy fighting these bills. We're calling on all state residents, community, and allies to #ShowUp4TransYouth and queer youth by demanding politicians end efforts of dividing the people and work toward CARE FOR TRANS AND QUEER YOUTH.  Is there an upcoming state or local action that we can uplift on this petition? Contact petition organizers by emailing [email protected] to share upcoming actions, efforts, and updates related to TQ youth devising freedom. Our team will work to include relevant updates to state petitions. You can also check out efforts in other states here. GSA Network will continue to update state solidarity petitions as bills and resistance movements continue to evolve throughout the next few months. Be sure to share this petition with all TQ youth leaders and allies who are committed to interrupting these ongoing attacks.
