Religious institutions can be a challenging place for LGBTQA+/SGL folx of faith, including tweens and teens. Some queer and trans young people find a comforting home in faith communities. Others are confronted with constant hostility and spiritual violence.
Below, you'll find some relevant resources, although they are not all focused on young people.
In addition, there's an extensive list of things to check out, mostly separated out by faith, in the adult resources section. And some of my survey-takers had things to say, both positive and negative, about the role of religion in their lives.
See these articles on the importance of fostering queer and trans joy, hope, and strengths. You have the ability to help in this way and so many others.
