'Out' at school, and now on internet radio

A forum for young queer people to voice, air and express what's going on for them, the things that affect them, and the challenges they face.

Gay Line Wellington has launched the first of a ten-part series of interviews with LGBT students about the issues 'out' young people face today.

John Mayes of Gay Line Wellington says the aim of the School's Out on Demand series is to provide a resource for young queer people, youth workers, counsellors and teachers to hear more about how young people deal with family, friends and peers' reactions to their 'coming out'.

"We hope, through offering diverse stories and experiences, to aid queer youth, increase awareness and contribute to a more tolerant, accepting and empathetic society," he explains.
