Youth Services

We place LGBTQ+ youth (ages 16–24) on a path to self-efficacy, connection, and stability through positive youth development. Our ongoing programs include a dedicated youth drop-in space providing a full spectrum of services from community building to crisis intervention, cultivating social connections, access to essential needs such as food and hygiene supplies, mental health services, housing navigation, and educational workshops.

Drop-In Hours:

• Monday through Thursday: 10-6 pm PT

For any questions, please email us at [email protected]

Sign up for Youth Services’ latest newsletter, Qmmunity, for LGBTQ+ youth ages 16-24. We’ll keep you in the know on upcoming virtual and in-person workshops, events, and gatherings designed to provide resources and opportunities for LGBTQ+ youth to build community and cultivate new connections.

Drop-In Program: We provide access to basic needs, hygiene supplies, food, food access gift cards, masks, gender-affirming gear, clothing, resource referrals, and virtual spaces. We also host virtual programs for LGBTQ+ youth to build local connections with other youth and partner organizations. 

Navigation Services: We support young people with finding safe and stable housing. Our navigators connect youth to housing programs and opportunities while assisting with the process from start to finish. As a coordinated entry access point, we also help houseless youth navigate the homeless response system. For more information, email [email protected]

The Center’s Mental Health Department provides FREE and confidential bilingual (Spanish), bicultural (Latinx/American), holistic, client-centered, and gender-affirming mental health services to LGBTQ+ youth (primarily between ages 16-24). We provide virtual 1-on-1 appointments and consultation with our mental health specialist and referrals to other agencies as needed. Our services are rooted in culturally responsive, trauma-informed, and restorative justice-based mental and behavioral health practices.
