SERVICIOS PARA JÓVENES QUEER
What is Queer Youth Services (QYS)?
Queer Youth Services brinda servicios de educación, defensa y apoyo a jóvenes queer, sus seres queridos y proveedores comunitarios.
Trans Fashion Treasury
Provides gender-affirming items such as clothing, makeup, binders, wigs, etc., free of charge.
Achivements:
Last year (2023), QYS provided over two hundred gender-affirming items through the Trans Fashion Treasury, benefiting 37 individuals directly. This year, five youth have been assisted through the legal name change process, while many more have accessed updated documentation and necessary medical providers. Collaborating with our Director of Advocacy and Community Action, Eve, we've initiated poetry programs for youth held in juvenile detention facilities.
