In our commitment to make a difference in Chilean society and provide a safe space for children, adolescents, and young adults from LGBTQAI+ communities, during the first half of 2023, we have made a huge effort with our education and awareness campaigns, our visibility and communication efforts, and our suicide prevention interventions.
By engaging in conversations and educating students, education professionals in schools, organizations, government staff, among many others, we are discussing, raising awareness, and providing tools to people to deal with discrimination, intervene against bullying, be active allies in suicide prevention, and create a safe space for LGBTQAI+ children and adolescents.
