reachOUT is a creative, inclusive & accessible program for lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, two-spirit, gender nonconforming and queer (LGBTTGNCQ) people in the Greater Toronto Area. In particular, we recognize the needs of youth and adults who experience multiple oppressions and work to create spaces with and for people who are traditionally excluded from mainstream services, including people of colour, trans, two-spirit and gender nonconforming people, and disabled people. We are committed to social justice, community building, education and advocacy to increase access, visibility and to strengthen our communities. As part of equitable representation, our staff team reflects the diversity of our queer, trans, two-spirit and gender non-conforming communities with the majority of our team members identifying as Black, Indigenous and people of colour. We offer:

  • Individual and family counseling for youth 12-18
  • Consultation and training to service providers and external agencies
  • Educational Workshops and Presentations
  • Drop-in groups
  • Referrals
  • Outreach
  • Advocacy
  • Arts programming

All services are free of charge!

Services are available in English & French. An interpreter can be provided for youth who speak other languages.
