Mission Statement
The It Gets Better Project exists to uplift, empower, and connect LGBTQ+ youth around the globe. It envisions a world where all LGBTQ+ youth are free to live equally and know their worthiness and power as individuals.
About This Cause
It Gets Better Project (IGBP) is a 501(c)(3) with a singular focus on empowering lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ+) youth around the world to embrace and celebrate their authentic selves. Growing up isn’t easy, especially when you are also trying to affirm and assert your sexual orientation and/or gender identity. It can be a challenging and isolating process. However, the good news is, no one has to do it alone. IGBP fulfills its mission to uplift, empower and connect LGBTQ+ youth around the globe in two ways: 1. Storytelling. IGBP connects young LGBTQ+ people with the global LGBTQ+ community by providing access to an arsenal of uplifting and inspiring stories of hope, resilience, and determination, as told by members of the LGBTQ+ community and their allies. 2. Building community. IGBP builds community both internationally and locally in three main ways: (a) by cultivating a growing network of international affiliates that have embraced IGBP mission to support LGBTQ+ youth in their home countries, (b) by engaging with young LGBTQ+ people both on and offline and, and (c) by connecting them to local community service providers that can provide on-the-ground assistance.
