Are you building (or are interested in building) 2SLGBTQ community where you live? LGBT YouthLine wants to connect with you!
Through the launch of our new program, LGBT YouthOrganize, we hope to connect with youth 29 and under in Ontario who are building community through starting your own youth groups, GSAs, events, or collectives. Sometimes it can be hard to know where to start, or how to make your group or program the best it can be! We are here for you and are launching a new online space to connect with 2SLGBTQ youth across Ontario who are doing work in their communities.
Here’s what we will be doing together:
- YouthLine will be sharing and writing resources and tools on how to organize community spaces, from first getting started to more specific challenges like finding space, making events more accessible and inclusive, and figuring out what folks in your community want and need most!
- We’ll be having important conversations and skills shares around building more anti-oppressive, accessible spaces
- YouthLine will be hosting online meetings where you will have the chance to talk with other 2SLGBTQ youth building community spaces across Ontario, share challenges, and get help and support
- Get your group or program added to Youth Line’s Referral Database, so that other 2SLGBTQ can find your awesome programs, groups, and events!
Applications to add your group to YouthOrganize are NOW OPEN! Please complete this short survey to add your group: Add Your Group!
