Boston Taking Steps to Make Sure LGBTQ+ Youth Have Safe Spaces at School

As states across the country pass anti-gay legislation targeting schools, the city of Boston is doing the opposite. Officials are making sure queer young people have a safe place at school, and they are on a mission to spread the word.
Quincey Roberts, the inaugural executive director for Boston’s Office of LGBTQ+ Advancement, is visiting some of the city’s 30 public high schools to promote student-led Gay-Straight Alliances, also known as Gender-Sexuality Alliances.
Under state law, high schools in Massachusetts are required to have a GSA if students want it, but Roberts said not many are aware that the law exists.
