The Gay, Lesbian, and Straight Education Network (GLSEN) of San Diego County is a chapter of GLSEN, a national organization fighting for every student’s right to a safe, supportive education.

GLSEN San Diego County is a grassroots initiative, working locally in their community to ensure safe schools for all students, regardless of sexual orientation and gender identity. There are 43 Chapters around the country doing this important work.

Their chapter supports students and educators locally, organizes around LGBTQ-affirming public policy, plans teacher trainings, and hosts events for students, educators, parents, and allies. Chapters like theirs play an important role in bringing GLSEN’s programs and visions to right where we live, work, and learn. While some chapters have full-time or part-time staff, most are entirely volunteer-based. They’re always looking for new volunteers to help ensure safe schools for all students.
