Mission

The It Gets Better Project exists to uplift, empower and connect LGBTQ+ youth around the globe.

About

Media Program: The It Gets Better Project works in all forms of media to bring messages of hope to LGBTQ+ youth and to spark conversations about the challenges they confront. The It Gets Better Project's online video collection and social media platforms are at the center of its global messaging and outreach to youth. Every video offers a unique perspective, but the core message in each is the same: telling LGBTQ+ youth that, whatever their circumstances, it gets better. This simple message has attracted over one million social media followers from around the world - a number that continues to grow every month. In 2018, It Gets Better stories were viewed 5.9 million times, with a total of 3.9 million minutes watched through social outlets like YouTube and Facebook. Popular stories of the year included Hayley Kiyoko, PJ Simmons and Noah Aberlin, Ben J Pierce, Nikita Dragun, Manny MUA, Alexis G. Zall, Joey Graceffa, Kingsley, Peppermint, Jiggly Caliente, Yuhua Hamasaki, Eureka O'Hara, Jonathan Fernandez, Thalia Almodovar, Vee Reyes, AD Diggs, Moniece Slaughter, DJ GRiZ, Ryan Jamaal Swain, Bo Burnham, Elsie Fisher, Alyson Stoner - and many, many more, which can be seen at ItGetsBetter.org.The It Gets Better Project's new education program, It Gets Better EDU, which converts popular It Gets Better media content into guides designed to help facilitate discussions about the LGBTQ+ experience in the classroom, received a generous grant from Los Angeles County's 3rd District Supervisor Sheila Kuehl to enhance the program's reach in Los Angeles. More than 1,000 students around the world participated in It Gets Better EDU programming. And, more than 500 educators received training on how to leverage It Gets Better content in the classroom to facilitate discussions around issues impacting the LGBTQ+ community.
