Join us for our annual Youth Night of Noise Summit!
Historically, Night of Noise is breaking the silence for Day of Silence. The goal of Day of Silence is to raise awareness of LGBTQ+ youth being harassed and bullied. This year GLSEN is changing the name of Day of Silence to Day of NO Silence in response to over 800 anti-LGBTQ+ bills introduced last year.
“GLSEN’s Day of NO Silence is a nationally-recognized student-led demonstration where LGBTQ+ students and allies all around the country—and the world— protest the harmful effects of harassment and discrimination of LGBTQ+ people in schools” - GLSEN. (2023). Join us for Day of Silence on April 4, 2023 and support LGBTQ+ students! Retrieved March 4th 2025, from https://www.glsen.org/dayofnosilence
