Who We Are
We Are Family has been dedicated to providing resources for gay, lesbian,
bisexual, transgender, queer, questioning, Intersex (GLBTQQI) and straight
ally youth ages 16-23 for the past sixteen years.
We offer support
and leadership development opportunities through a program called SafeSpace,
a weekly gathering of young GLBTQQI and affirming straight people who get
together to share their experiences, express their feelings, and find
encouragement among their peers. With two trained adult group facilitators
present at every SafeSpace gathering, the meeting is both safe and
structured. Meeting topics range from bullying to adopting healthy coping
skills to deal with stress.
Our goal is to empower GLBTQQI and
straight ally youth and to help them find their places in the world, in
their families, and in their communities.
