QUEERSPACE collective

QUEERSPACE collective creates “space” for 2SLGBTQIA+ youth to feel safe and empowered to be their true selves.

Our vision is for all 2SLGBTQIA+ youth to have a supportive community to help them develop a strong sense of pride in who they are, where they come from and where they want to go!

QUEERSPACE works with 2SLGBTQIA+ youth, the broader 2SLGBTQIA+ community and local organizations to create a strengthened LGBTQ+ support network and reduce LGBTQ+ youth isolation, suicide and homelessness.

QUEERSPACE hangouts, an initiative of QUEERSPACE collective, is a youth-centric intergenerational mentorship program creating safe, inclusive spaces for 2SLGBTQIA+ youth and 2SLGBTQIA+ adults to connect as their authentic selves. Through in-person and virtual 1:1 mentoring and group events, 2SLGBTQIA+ youth will develop increased self-esteem and a greater sense of belonging, cultural identity, and pride.
