Growing up different in school is still just as challenging as ever. Rarely do these teens receive messages of support and hope. Wear it Purple is about turning those messages of homophobic bulling around.

Wear it Purple has announced that it will be hosting its second Wear it Purple Day. The group's social media site has had over 12,000 people commit to wear purple on September 2, to raise awareness and show support of the issues facing same-sex attracted and gender diverse young people.
