What’s YouthOrganize? We’re glad you asked!
YouthOrganize is a 10-month volunteer program that brings 2SLGBTQ+ youth together in Peel (Brampton, Caledon, & Mississauga) and Halton (Burlington, Halton Hills, Milton, & Oakville) regions to organize!
In small pods, YouthOrganize volunteers create and/or continue organizing initiatives, with the support of LGBT YouthLine staff. Volunteers have access to skill-based training, virtual community building, ongoing staff support, and project funding to see their community projects take shape. Through building relationships and engaging with local 2SLGBTQ+ service providers and community members, YouthOrganize volunteers learn about leadership, skill-building, and community outreach.
2020-2021 YouthOrganize Volunteer Cohort:
The 2020-2021 YouthOrganize Volunteer Cohort begins in November 2020 and will finish in August 2021. We’re excited to announce the four Organizing Pods that the YouthOrganize 2020/2021 Volunteer Cohort will be working on:
