Overturning Roe v. Wade poses a threat to the health and safety of LGBTQ young people. Here are a few reasons why reproductive healthcare rights matter to LGBTQ young people:
🏥 Overturning Roe v. Wade allows states to further regulate essential health care and the already limited number of LGBTQ-competent providers across the country, posing a threat to the health and safety of LGBTQ young people.
🏳️🌈 In undermining the right to privacy, this Supreme Court decision could also jeopardize the rights afforded to LGBTQ people in the Obergefell and Lawrence decision — the freedom to marry who you love.
💔 Trevor Project polling found that nearly 70% of LGBTQ young people say efforts to restrict access to abortion often gave them stress or anxiety.
We won’t stop fighting to establish equality for LGBTQ people, and our counselors are here 24/7 to support young LGBTQ people across the country who may be feeling a wide range of emotions — including anger, grief, and fear — in response to this decision.
