Social Media & Silence

We’ve been getting lots of questions about using social media on the Day of Silence. Ultimately, it’s up to your if you want to engage in social media or not on the Day of Silence! However, we think that using social media is a great way to stay connected and stand in solidarity with other Day of Silence organizers around the country. Social media is also a tool you can use to ask GLSEN for support if you are having trouble with your Day of Silence plans.

If you do want to use social media, here are some ways to stay connected!
