    More young people than ever are growing up with LGBT+ parents but many schools still don't talk openly about LGBT+ families. Our new research report highlights the many challenges that LGBT+ families face in 2024, and provides 10 recommendations for nurseries as well as primary and secondary schools. 🔗 Read our report findings at justlikeus.org/research - please share so we can raise awareness and help make the future look brighter for young people growing up in LGBT+ families.
