What to Do When Home Isn't Working?

Home should be a place of safety. But what if it isn't? Whether due to conflict, rejection, or other forms of instability?

Join us for a discussion focused on offering support and advice to young queer people who don't feel safe, accepted, or supported at home.

We'll talk about concrete steps for coping with difficult situations. You'll learn where to seek psychological and legal help, and how to build your own support network. We'll share useful information about available services and the rights of young queer people. We'll also mention options for getting involved in safe communities.
