Job Description

COLAGE AT IDENTITY!!

Kids and teens with LGBTQ parents are invited to a COLAGE Meeting on Sunday February 21st, 2010, from 4 to 6 pm at the Identity Youth Center, 206 State Street, in Binghamton. The meeting is for the new Binghamton COLAGE chapter which will provide support and celebration while giving a safe place for kids and teens with one or more LGBTQ parents.
 
COLAGE chapters are local or regionally-based social and support groups that connect children with LGBTQ parents to a community of peers, helping them to be confident leaders who are proud of themselves and their families.
 
 COLAGE is a national organization of people with LGBTQ parents that is dedicated to creating a safer and more just environment for COLAGErs and their families. Parents and kids (grades 3 and up) are welcome to come and enjoy a dinner together before participating in "kids-only" and "parents-only" activities.
 
   The event is sponsored by The Lesbian and Gay Family Building Project and The Identity Youth Center and more information can be found at www.idyouthorg or by calling 607.724.4308, option 3. 

Identity is a community youth center for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Same Gender Loving, Transgender and Questioning youth and their Straight Allies in the Southern Tier of New York State. The Identity center serves as a safe place for LGBTQ teens ages 14-20 to find support, ask questions, hang out, and express themselves. We also provide resources, education and support to the families, friends and allies of LGBTQ teens, and to education, health care and social service providers wanting to better serve youth.

Find us at 206 State Street in downtown Binghamton- drop by and check us out, or contact us for more info.
