VOTD: Austin Police Department & LGPOA-Austin: It Gets Better


by: Shelby Alexander

Wed Oct 10, 2012 at 07:00 PM CDT


This is BOR's Video of the Day, or VOTD, our nightly video clip segment highlighting must-see content. If you like today's video and want more people to see it, share it on Twitter and Facebook!

As a part of the It Gets Better Project and The Trevor Project, the The Lesbian & Gay Peace Officers Association produced a video with LGBT officers and civilian members of the Austin Police Department to reach out to LGBTQ youth who are struggling with bullying, harassment and non-acceptance.

Watch below:


Having our law enforcement leadership tell their own coming out stories sends a strong message of solidarity to the LGBT communities across Texas. We're lucky to have a group that is so willing to speak out on behalf of this community right here in Austin!



Check out all of our BOR videos of the day on the VOTD tag.
