GLOW is a 2SLGBTQ+ social youth group that works to build self-esteem, a sense of connection to community, and pride about diverse sexual and gender identities.
GLOW meets twice per week for two different age groups. GLOW Junior is for youth ages 11-14 and GLOW Senior is for youth ages 15-18.
This is a drop-in group – no registration is required. Gender neutral bathrooms on site. Location physically accessible. Transportation provided upon request.
Activities include game nights, arts & crafts, movies, health workshops, 2SLGBTQ+ history and more. Inclusive for any youth identifying as lesbian, gay, bisexual, polysexual, asexual, transgender, nonbinary, questioning and beyond. Our apologies, the group is currently limited to those youth who identify as 2SLGBTQ+ or 2SLGBTQ+ questioning.
For more information please call 519-941-1530 ext. 213 or email [email protected]
GLOWn Ups Keep it CLASSY
GLOWn Ups Keep it CLASSY is for Caregivers who Love, Advocate for, and Support our 2SLGBTQ+ children and Youth, as well as each other. Our free monthly meetings are designed to foster a supportive environment where you can connect with fellow caregivers who understand the unique challenges and joys of our shared journey!
Our get-togethers provide a safe environment where parents and caregivers can empower one another. We believe that this collaboration is key, and we aim to foster a community that learns from one another. We also believe in engagement with outside experts who bring new research and evidence-based practices to our working groups, expanding our education and our understanding.
In addition to personal support and education, we are passionate advocates for inclusivity, including in our schools, healthcare, and in leisure activities, within our Dufferin community. Together we can work towards creating more supportive environments for our children, ensuring they thrive in all aspects of their lives.
Your experience matters! Share your voice, and let’s come together… and GLOW together!
