This website presents important and unique issues to think about for preventing and addressing bullying of LGBT youth. More U.S. high school students who self-identify as lesbian, gay, or bisexual say they’ve been bullied on school property and cyberbullied than their heterosexual peers. This website offers information and resources about bullying of LGBT young people and how to help them, including:
- How to create a safe environment for LGBT youth
- Civil rights and laws that protect LGBT youth
- Additional materials to help prevent bullying and support LGBT youth
Per a court order, HHS is required to restore this website as of 11:59 PM, February 14, 2025. Any information on this page promoting gender ideology is extremely inaccurate, and disconnected from the immutable biological reality that there are two sexes, male and female. The Trump Administration rejects gender ideology and condemns the harms it causes to children, by promoting their chemical and surgical mutilation, and to women, by depriving them of their dignity, safety, well-being, and opportunities. This page does not reflect biological reality and therefore the Administration and this Department rejects it.
