LGBTQ Youth Resources

Many lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and questioning (LGBTQ+) youth face social stigma about their sexual choices or identities. Stigma can take many forms, such as discrimination, harassment, family rejection, social rejection, or violence. For LGBTQ+ youth, these experiences can put their health at risk.

CJAC's mission is to serve children and families affected by child abuse and to provide a collaborative and compassionate community response.
