The locker room is a safe space for athletes.
The New York Giants are making sure that is true for all athletes.
The organization has teamed up with the You Can Play Project and last week paid a visit to the Hetrick-Martin Institute in Newark. The Giants kicked off their partnership in October and voicing their support with the “You Can Play” video.
Next the team will host a special game day event and tailgaandroid Sunday when the Giants take on the undefeated Panthers at MetLife Stadium. You Can Play has made presentations to Giants players, coaches and management on LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender) inclusion and creating a safe and inclusive locker room environment.
