Due to discrimination, LGBTQ+ folks are disproportionately affected by the weight of mental health challenges. If you need support, there is a wide, affirming community of people and resources here to help you embrace your authentic self and identity.
Our LGBTQ+ youth page offers a broad spectrum of resources for young people dealing with discrimination, mental health issues and more. Resources include:
We’ve asked people what messages they wish they had been given as LGBTQ+ young people and compiled those messages for all who need to see them. We also have messages from some of our team members who work with LGBTQ+ people.
The Buckeye Ranch stands in solidarity with our LGBTQ+ youth and community. Please amplify this call to action for Spectrum News to take down their harmful story affirming conversion therapy and read this collective letter signed by 35 Ohio LGBTQ+ organizations.
