The great news is that The New York Times Magazine did a major feature on middle-school youth coming out! It's exciting to see prominent national-profile media recognize the issues LGBTQQ youth -- and really YOUNG youth -- are facing in their schools and in their lives.

I'm also happy to say that Outlet is in the article (via two quotes from my interview with article author Benoir Denizet-Lewis). We do want Outlet to be a voice in this conversation, and it's significant that our name comes up when The New York Times is writing about gay youth. But most important of all, our work is about getting this conversation to be happening -- everywhere!

Here's the link to the article "Coming Out in Middle School":

Thanks for all you do to help keep Outlet such a reliable and viable voice.

All the best,
