Reach Out Centre for Kids
Queer@ROCK provides prevention-based programming and supports for 2SLGBTQIA+ children, youth, and families through the Reach Out Centre for Kids, in Halton Region.
Queer@ROCK focuses on:
* supporting access to safer spaces
* building self-esteem
* creating opportunities for connection to community, and a focus on feeling affirmed and seen.
We’re here to empower our queer youth to know themselves and to be able to advocate for themselves in a society that inherently creates layers of barriers for 2SLGBTQIA+ folks.
Queer@ROCK works from an anti-oppressive lens where we understand, but most importantly, centre the needs and experiences of youth coming from intersectional identities where they experience multiple layers of oppression.
