Day of Silence (April 17, 2015)



<p style="margin: 0px 0px 1em;">Silence can create change!</p>
<p style="margin: 0px 0px 1em;">Thatâ??s why every year hundreds of thousands of students across the world take a vow of silence on a Friday in April. This quiet but powerful, student-led action raises awareness about the silencing effect of anti-LGBT bullying, harassment and discrimination.</p>
<p style="margin: 0px 0px 1em;">Anyone can organize a Day of Silence activity or event, and it can be a powerful way to band together and take a stand. Learn more about how to register, organize, what your rights are, and what to do if those rights arenâ??t being respected.</p>
<p style="margin: 0px 0px 1em;">Strength in numbers. Solidarity in silence.</p>

I'm so proud of all who take part...Our youth will hopefully change the views of many of their fellow students on this issue.
