Stonewall Youth supports, informs, and advocates for bisexual, lesbian, gay, transgendered, queer and questioning youth up to 21 years old.  It began in 1991 as a series of community meetings to discuss the needs of GLBTQQ youth in the area.  The people involved had drive, passion, and vision that grew into providing a consistent weekly support group for youth that still continues to meet today.  Since then, Stonewall Youth has grown in amazing and wonderful ways.  Weekly support group meetings are still happening and usually have anywhere from five to thirty people present.

The Stonewall Youth Speakers Bureau is a group of young people who go to local youth groups, community events, schools, and agencies, and talk to people in their communities about their experiences being GLBTQQ youth. This project helps break down people’s stereotypes about young LGBTQQ people, and creates a space for young people to share their ideas about community issues with community members.
