Who are We?

Keeping it CLASSY: Caregivers who Love, Advocate and Support our 2SLGBTQ+ Children & Youth (and each other)

Free monthly meetings of dedicated caregivers who work together to support and empower each other to navigate the challenges and rewards of raising 2SLGBTQ+ children and teens. We aim to learn from each other and outside experts, based on research and evidence-based practices. We are advocates for inclusivity in schools, healthcare and leisure activities within the community.

Please help us learn how we can better connect with you; and create meaningful support in the community by answering the following questions.
