In solidarity of our communities LGBTQIA+ young people, we join over 1,250 schools, universities, and community organisations to celebrate Wear It Purple Day! On August 25th, 2023, Wear it Purple Day seeks to shine light on the importance of creating a supportive, safe, empowering and inclusive environments for all rainbow young people.
Wear it Purple aims to-
- Advocate for and empower rainbow young people
- Celebrate and promote the value of diversity and inclusion in all community settings
- Raise awareness about sexuality, sex, gender identity and challenge harmful social cultures

“We can’t underestimate the importance of showing our young people that they are seen, supported and respected, and have the right to be proud of who they are and who they are becoming”, shared Lauren, Fams Sector Engagement Manager.
