We want to make sure that you know about -- and share -- some more safe direct help resources available on Scarleteen and elsewhere, as well as some content on our site that might now or soon be particularly relevant to you if you live in the United States. (1/9)
We’re wrapping up our fundraiser today. It was so wonderful to see so many of you talking about us on social media, to receive your messages of support, and more. You really showed up for us and it really, really, paid off!

Scarleteen is one of the absolute best things that still remains of the internet I grew up on
A reminder that I'm raising $4k to support @scarleteen.com's staff and volunteer health fund to ensure that sex educators doing some of the BEST sex ed around are able to access health care. In an era of misinfo where most kids don't even get the most basic in school, Scarleteen is critical.

Sex ed is more than anatomy and sexually transmitted infections. It's relationships, identity, the full spectrum of what it means to be human, to care for ourselves and for each other. Join 192 donors who’ve contributed $21,817 to our $40k healthcare fundraiser! www.classy.org/campaign/sca...
This is a moment of uncertainty and fear in sex ed. Governments are restricting access to sexual health information with tactics such as age verification laws and treating sex ed as pornography to deny young people access to information that provides them with accurate sexual health information.

Oh wow..this is such a blast from the past I’m getting nostalgic. I remember accessing Scarleteen in my teenage years in the early days of the web and they had some of the best advice and sex ed for an Indian teenager who didn’t really get it from anywhere else. Do donate if you’re able!
Sex ed is a notoriously underpaid field. Many sex educators work multiple jobs and don’t have access to employee health benefits. We're raising $40,000 to provide healthcare for our staff and volunteers so we can focus on what we do best: Supporting young people. www.classy.org/campaign/scarl...

Over on @scarleteen.com , I wrote up an essay I've always wanted to read and that is more essential than ever with the US government's anti-autism BS. Autistic people: we are enough. I delved into this reality in this essay, plz share and read if you can! :)

Hey, Autistic People: You're Enough
You exist and that’s a good thing. I wish I’d been told that earlier, because it’s the truth for all of us, in as well as outside the autistic community.

I wrote for Scarleteen as a teenager briefly and it was one of the first steps I took toward being a professional creative, and one of the first moments where I felt I could govern and understand my sexuality through my own lens. If you have some money to support they are a worthy cause.
Since 1998, Scarleteen has been an essential resource on sex and sexuality for young people from all over the world. It’s the foundation we’re built on, based in our core values, as expressed by our longtime slogan: queer sex ed for ALL.

@scarleteen.com provides invaluable, comprehensive sex education (that we frequently site in our own comics!) and if they can raise 10k in donations from individuals, they'll receive a generous donor match for another 10k. Contribute!
