JASMYN

Every day, JASMYN works to support LGBTQIA+ teens and young adults as they find their strength, their voice, and their place in the world. We offer spaces where young people are welcomed, celebrated, and supported as they become who they are destined to be. Our mission remains to support the empowerment of LGBTQIA+ teens and young adults through leadership, advocacy, resources, and a safe and affirming community. 

This Give OUT Day, your gift becomes a lifeline.

Your support powers accessible, high-impact programs for LGBTQIA+ young adults ages 18 to 29 and teens ages 13 to 17, with parental consent. You help keep JASMYN a visible and vital resource for youth and families who need us most.
