The Illinois Safe Schools Alliance was proud to be among the supporters who gathered in Champaign-Urbana to rally for queer and transgender youth autonomy in May 2023, as reported in The Daily Illini.
On Saturday afternoon, Uniting Pride of Champaign County staged a rally for queer and transgender youth autonomy at the Champaign County Courthouse.
Nicole Frydman, director of operations at Uniting Pride, helped organize the rally.
“(LGBTQ+ youth) never asked to be in this fight, but they are meeting it with strength, beauty and thoughtfulness,” Frydman said. “They deserve our work to help this world be a better place once we’ve shuffled off this mortal coil and they are left to deal with our mess.”
