Join us at The Space, a LGBTQIA+ youth peer-to-peer support group offered by YouthZone.

LGBTQIA+ youth peer groups are invaluable in providing a safe, positive space for young people to come together and support one another. These groups can help to reduce feelings of isolation and alienation, as well as providing an opportunity to learn and get involved in advocacy work. They can also help to promote healthier attitudes towards gender and sexuality in the wider community.

The Space offers a safe, comfortable environment for LGBTQIA+ youth to share their experiences and feelings with other youth that may be in similar situations. With the support of trained facilitator, we aim to create a sense of community and understanding among the youth that attend. We believe in a strength-based approach to therapy and in providing skills that can be used every day. At The Space, we want to promote empowerment and acceptance, while working to reduce the stigma associated with the LGBTQIA+ community. Ultimately, our goal is to create a safe and comfortable space for youth to be themselves and feel accepted.
