On Oct 5, 2010 we gathered in West Hollywood, CA to remember the beautiful young lives we've lost to suicide in the recent month... young people who could no longer bear the gauntlet of harassment and bullying they faced on a regular basis. We must all commit to stop the hate and let every young person know, and truly feel, that they are precious, that they matter, that they are loved and supported, no matter who or what they are ... WHAT WILL YOU DO TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE?
Thanks to West Hollywood Councilwoman Lindsey Horvath, Charles Robbins, Ex Dir The Trevor Project and Rev. Neil Thomas of the MCCLA. Thank you Jennifer Morrison and Debi Kohos for organizing this important evening.
