Our LGBTQ+ Education and Acceptance Project (LEAP) is currently seeking submissions from parents, guardians, and family members of LGBTQ+ youth in Brooklyn and Queens. We are specifically looking for stories that highlight a journey toward greater acceptance of a child's LGBTQ+ identity, with a particular interest in hearing from Black and/or Latine parents and caregivers. These powerful role model stories will be featured on postcards distributed throughout the boroughs, providing a valuable resource for other families. Anonymity for all participants is strictly guaranteed. This initiative provides a meaningful opportunity to contribute to a project that fosters understanding and support within the community. The two selected individuals will receive an additional incentive. To submit a story or for more information, please contact us by phone or email. We encourage you to share this post within your network.
