YOUth Matter: LGBTQ+ Youth Group [In-Person]

YOUth Matter is a social support group for local youth (aged 12 – 18), who experience marginalization based on their gender identity, gender expression, and/or sexual orientation. It is a space for LGBTQ+ youth to be their authentic selves, find and provide support, share resources, and build community.   

 The meeting usually consists of introductions/icebreakers, a group share-out/discussion, and games/activities.  Once a youth attends their first meeting, we can get them connected to our Discord server, if desired.  It’s a chance for folks to stay connected/engaged between meetings. 

2nd & 4th Tuesdays from 6:00 – 8 PM [IN-PERSON]
Facilitator: Carolyn Lopez-Rivera, Meley Tesfamariam, Isabella Velarde
