Content Warning: homophobia, transphobia, racism, and discrimination. This video contains experiences of harassment and violence against young people and recounts the use of discriminatory language.

Our Committee Vice Chair, Becca Atwood (they/them), directed this reel to highlight the responses from our State of Play III survey. These real stories have been retold by actors, Becca Atwood and Brodie Christie (she/her). Cinematography by Jamie Hess (he/him).

While a different post than the usual for YPN, it’s important for us to highlight these tragedies and the truth as to why we’re advocating for safe health care.

💔 These recounts are nothing more than heartbreaking. It’s time for change, because healthcare should care.

Download or request a physical copy of our State of Play III report in our bio. Their voices matter— share the reality and help us make a truly inclusive future for our care.

International Day of People with Disability is a global celebration promoting inclusion, understanding, and the leadership of people with disabilities for a sustainable future.

Did you know the intersectionality of disability and queerness, can also create additional layers of complexity in young LGBTQIA+ young people?

Today we’re spotlighting the voices of queer people with disabilities and celebrating their resilience, creativity, and leadership in building a world where inclusion thrives 💜

I hope all disabled folks have a restful day.”

WRAPPING UP PRIDEFEST!

✨We released our State of Play report, shedding light on the realities of queer healthcare in WA and paving the way for better support.

☀️ Pride Fair Day was a vibe, full of connection, creativity and spreading the word on State of Play!

🎭 We danced the evening away during our magical Queer Prom, where we sang, sparkled and celebrated.

🏳️‍🌈 And finally, we ended on a high, marching the streets in the @pride_wa Pride Parade. Showing up loud and proud!

With so many partners and people to thank, you shined with us and made this PrideFest a dazzling one. Thank YOU! 🤩
