The Texas Gay-Straight Alliance Network is a youth-directed statewide program that unites school-based Gay Straight Alliance (GSA) student clubs to one another through peer support, leadership development, and training. The Texas GSA Network supports young people in starting, strengthening, and sustaining GSAs and builds their capacity to:

•    Create safe environments in schools for students to support each other and learn about transphobia, homophobia, and other oppressions
•    Educate their school community about homophobia, gender identity and sexual orientation issues
•    Fight discrimination, harassment, and violence in schools

What We Do:

• Provide tools and resources to LGBTQ and allied youth to support them in starting, strengthening, and sustaining GSA clubs
• Offer trainings and workshops to support youth in organizing against oppression in their schools and communities
• Host two annual youth activism camps, to build youth leadership and knowledge
• Host regular local GSA club mixers, where students can get together to talk about how they are making change in their schools and communities
