This week I shared the heartbreaking article about a young boy, age 9 ending his life after suffering bullying and homophobic abuse from classmates, it was essential to show our support on ‘wear it purple’ day.
Wear it Purple Day is about showing rainbow (sexuality and gender diverse) young people that they are supported, celebrated and respected exactly as they are. It’s about raising awareness in your school, workplace, uni, or general community that rainbow young people face challenges that they shouldn’t, and it won’t be tolerated.
Wear it Purple has a simple message: you have the right to be proud of who you are. Sexuality or gender identity does not change this.
