As part of our commitment to Justice, Equity, Diversity and Inclusion (JEDI), we proudly serve the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer community. We recognize the unique at-risk challenges facing many of the youth of this community: skipping school because of feeling unsafe, experiencing verbal harassment, suicidal thoughts and general feeling of hopelessness. Mentoring can help LGBTQ+ youth confront these challenges and promote positive life and educational outcomes.
This program is available to children no matter where they live or go to school. If you have additional questions or want to learn more, please contact our team. We'd be happy to assist you!
