Finding yourself is a multi-faceted journey, whether that means trying on a wig for the first time, seeing a queer-affirming movie, or picking out the pronoun pin that feels right. Adults who affirm that journey help LGBTQ+ young people feel free to be authentic without fear of rejection. 

Watching young people use their style to explore themselves ultimately helps us realize that self-expression is just a way to show the world who we are on the inside. 

Alongside our partners at Macy’s, who have supported The Trevor Project’s mission by raising over $6 million dollars to date, we invited five extraordinary young people to share their stories and what self-expression means to them.

Whether at prom or in the comfort of your own home, our style helps us find who we are. Watch Styles of Pride: Express Yourself  now:

Anthony and Billie Jean King, trans women have been historically left out of the month-long recognition. Advancements in rights for the entire LGBTQ+ community can be traced back to the tireless efforts and creative resistance of trans women. Because of the double forces of transphobia and misogyny, fundamental rights many take for granted, like housing, employment, medical care, and social support, remain difficult to attain for trans women and transfeminine people.
