The Straight and Gay Alliance

The mission of the Vernon Hills High School Straight and Gay Alliance is to stop homophobia, transphobia and discrimination. We hope to create an atmosphere where all people are safe and supported, regardless of our differences. We also hope to provide educational resources to enrich our school’s understanding of gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender and/or questioning people.

We hope to be a safe place to enhance the well being of youth suffering from isolation, harassment, discrimination and violence.

We hope to develop youth leaders capable of effecting positive change in our school and community.

We hope to educate students, teachers and administrators to make our school safe for all people.

Sponsored by Amy Christian and Eileen Baranyk. We meet Tuesdays after school in Room 2212.
