“As a board member of GSAFE and as a nurse, the statistics on risk factors for our LGBTQ youth have saddened me and galvanized my commitment to changing the 
world in which we live, however small the sphere of influence that I have,” said Ellen.
“To help me on that path, the antiracist training offered to the GSAFE board has greatly informed my work in the school district as we address inequities. As a believer in the power of education, I’m hopeful that with organizations like GSAFE, and the youth leaders who push our schools and communities to change, indeed it will get better.”
