Dear Secretary Betsy DeVos,
If you are truly committed to creating safe learning environments for students, then that should mean all students, including transgender students. We urge you to read our report, Separation and Stigma: Transgender Students & School Facilities, which outlines the profound harms of exclusionary policies on transgender children—harms that can be addressed with your direction.
Signed,

NEW REPORT! This isn’t just about bathrooms, it’s about whether transgender students will be included in our public education system. Put simply, if trans kids cannot safely access a bathroom, they cannot safely attend school.
MAP & @glsen have launched a new report: Separation and Stigma: Transgender Youth & School Facilities looking at the harmful and unnecessary policies that exclude transgender students from accessing appropriate school facilities.
Thanks to National Center for Transgender Equality and NEA Today for their partnership on this report.
“On the surface, the argument is about bathrooms, but at a deeper level, it is about whether or not transgender students will be included in our public education system.”

2017 to participating LGBT organizations. Individual donors are the most
significant source of revenue for LGBT organizations. Please consider
