Come Out, Kicked Out
Were you kicked out as a teen? Did you leave home? Do you know someone who was? Are you concerned about LGBTQ youth homelessness?
This autumn in honor of October’s National Coming Out Month we are launching a campaign to raise awareness about the epidemic of LGBTQ youth homelessness.
We’re asking for formerly homeless LGBTQ youth to write a few sentences, a paragraph, draw us a picture, make a video, take a picture and Come Out, Kicked Out.
We’re also asking our allies to take a picture, make a video, write something, or draw something, standing in solidarity with current and former homeless LGBTQ youth and/or showing how you have seen this epidemic impact your community.
Through the fall we will be showcasing this writing, and art on Kicked Out’s website (www.kickedoutanthology.com) as well as to college students, and community groups across the country.
Please submit your story by October 31st by emailing
kickedoutanthology@gmail.com
