2S-LGBTQ+ Youth Connection
Gilbert Centre’s QT Youth Program helps 2S-LGBTQ+ youth ages 12-29 build supportive community. We provide social opportunities for youth to have fun and learn new skills in an affirming environment. We also provide education and information on sex, gender, and sexuality along with safer sex supplies, safer HRT supplies, gender gear, and menstrual supplies.
