Meet the youth behind Project AVANT! In December 2020, 254 transgender and non-binary youth from 44 states shared their experiences with us. Thank you for sticking with us, and stay tuned for our next survey!
Identity can grow and change over time. We followed transgender and non-binary youth for 1.5 years and found that sexual orientation identity shifted more often than gender identity. See what we learned!
What helps trans and gender diverse youth thrive at school? We heard from 252 teens across the U.S. about their mental health and found that feeling connected to school and having a GSA made a real difference.
Youth told us who supports them and what would help most. Friends, family, and accepting communities topped the list, along with more resources and stronger school supports. Take a look at what they shared!
