New LGBTQ Youth Project in Bloomington/Normal
Written by ACHR Staff on June 29, 2010A new youth project aimed at GLBTQ young people between the ages of 14 and 23 is coming to Bloomington/Normal.
The Me, Myself & I Youth Project is dedicated to educating and empowering Bloomington-Normal’s GLBTQ youth and their straight allies in a safe and diverse environment. By providing support, education and referral services, as well as a place where they can be safe to explore their inner selves, the Me, Myself & I Youth Project helps GLBTQ youth become more comfortable with themselves, their sexuality, and their place in society.
Formed in 2009, Me, Myself & I Youth Project is currently recruiting interested persons who would like to volunteer. Founded by Berry Stevenson and assisted by Edward Sinclair Bruner, both long-time GLBTQ & HIV prevention advocates in Bloomington-Normal & Illinois, MMI Youth Project is especially interested in students & adults that are interested in serving on the Board of Directors.
An informational get-together will be held in August. For more information or to see how you can help, please contact Berry Stevenson at youthdirector09@yahoo.com.
