Justice for Leelah Alcorn

[a9127]

As I’m sure many of you know, Leelah Alcorn was a 17 year old transwoman who sadly took her own life at the end of 2014. There are many stories out there reporting on this tragedy but this is the first one I’ve seen that looks to taking positive action. Hope you will take the time to learn about Leelah and offer support to the many others who are in the same situation. There are also some good resources on this page such as the Transgender Violence Tracking Portal and information about the Conversion Therapy that apparently played a role in Leelah’s suicide. There is also an on-line petition you can sign in support of “Leelah’s Law” that would end the practice of “Conversion Therapy.”
