MLK Jr. Organizing Weekend
In the spirit of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., GLSEN is launching the Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Organizing Weekend. Recognizing the importance of relationships with other groups, understanding the roots of organizing in social justice and working outside of our schools, GLSEN is encouraging students and student clubs to co-organize activities about or trainings on coalition building, networking, organizing and social justice. This action will be a powerful weekend bringing the experiences and work of young people together to learn and support each other in our movements.
- National Day of Silence - Shout Out
The Day of Silence, a project of the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network (GLSEN) in collaboration with the United States Student Association (USSA), is a student-led day of action where those who support making anti-LGBT bias unacceptable in schools take a day-long vow of silence to recognize and protest the discrimination and harassment -- in effect, the silencing -- experienced by LGBT students and their allies.

- Transgender Day of Rememberance
GLSEN has supported Gender Education & Advocacy’s (GEA) Transgender Day of Remembrance over the past several years, encouraging students and student clubs to remember and educate communities about ending violence based on gender identity/expression. Partnering this year, GLSEN hopes Transgender Day of Remembrance can be used to create events that are spaces for discussions about the need to protect students against discrimination and harassment based on gender identity/expression. From a candle light vigil, school assembly, art instillation or transgender inclusive school training, students will be encouraged to participate during the week of November 15-19 in their schools.
