Under My Umbrella

Our Minds Matter is excited to share our brand new LGBTQ+ Youth Minds Matter initiative: Under My Umbrella!

This campaign aims to:

  • Highlight the importance of community for mental health and celebrate the joy the LGBTQ+ community brings to the world!
  • Provide support and education around health, safety, & well-being for LGBTQ+ youth. 

We hope you consider using some or all of these materials to make your school or community a more inclusive & warmer place for all teens!

Download the campaign guide, campaign assets, a full-size safe space poster, a learning packet for aspiring allies, and resource cards for LGBTQ+ teens below.
