Hey all,

I’m on the last few months of my contract, in higher ed. While I try to find work that’s more permanent, I do count myself lucky to be in a better position to offer help with little worry of reprucussions. In brief, I am trying to do whatever I can to support my LGBTQ+ students who are terrified. I’m a tough person, like I’ve seen some shit (war) but its breaking my soul feeling powerless here in the States.

Any suggestions, organizations, or other ideas I could have at the ready if a student needs help? I just want to be the best ally and empathetic human I can from my position, while I can.

I’m also being cautious since its getting harder to know who and what to trust, but ideas on exercising greater caution when offering help are welcome too. Sad I have to even convey that…
