Our Know Your Rights PSA for NYC Queer Youth.

We produced a know-your-rights PSA entitled The Q-niverse that highlights local, state and federal laws protecting youth from discrimination, harassment and bullying based on sexual orientation and gender expression. The PSA is meant to help queer youth in New York City advocate for themselves in middle school and high school.
