Program Description
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.
