We are thrilled to partner with you on this exciting and impactful campaign.<\/p><p>#SpiritDay began in 2010 following a string of high-profile suicides of gay teens. GLAAD worked to encourage millions of teachers, workplaces, celebrities, media outlets, and students to wear purple on social media, the color that symbolizes Spirit on the rainbow flag.<\/p><p>Today, <strong>#SpiritDay has become the most visible day of support for LGBTQ youth<\/strong>. Spirit Day occurs every year on the third Thursday of October, during National Bullying Prevention Month, when cliques begin to form in schools.<\/p><p>In 2024, youth are still facing unprecedented challenges in their daily lives. LGBTQ youth today experience disproportionate levels of bullying, growing anxiety and safety concerns, and continued threats of violence and discrimination based on their identities, especially for trans youth. As you know, anti-LGBTQ rhetoric, school policies, and legislation have increased exponentially this year. Our support needs to be visible and our resources need to combat the wave of discrimination LGBTQ youth are facing. GLAAD is once again leading outreach to engage the participation of individuals, celebrities, corporations, small businesses, media outlets, schools, local communities and even national landmarks.<\/p><p>This year\u2019s #SpiritDay will be a critical moment of reflection as we shine a light on the resilience and power of LGBTQ youth. Enclosed in this Partner Handbook are all the information you will need to successfully participate in GLAAD Presents #SpiritDay. We urge you to read through carefully, and engage with your teams, ERG leaders, community managers, and more.<\/p><p>We are deeply grateful for your commitment to stand up for the richness, dignity and humanity of LGBTQ lives \u2014 in particular, LGBTQ youth. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any questions you may have about the handbook or the campaign.<\/p><p>With gratitude, <br \/>The GLAAD Corporate Partnerships Team<\/p><p><strong>###<\/strong><\/p><p>#SpiritDay is the largest, most visible LGBTQ anti-bullying campaign in the world.
