"It Gets Better" Video
The It Gets Better project is an online video website founded by Dan Savage in September 2010 in response to the suicides of a number of teenagers who were bullied because they were gay or because their peers suspected that they were gay. The project's website states: "While many of these teens couldn’t see a positive future for themselves, we can. The It Gets Better Project was created to show young LGBT people the levels of happiness, potential, and positivity their lives will reach – if they can just get through their teen years. The It Gets Better Project wants to remind teenagers in the LGBT community that they are not alone — and it WILL get better."
