🍭 Youth Services
GSA Mountain Pride supports GSA’s or Inclusivity clubs across the valley. GSAs, short for Genders & Sexualities Alliances, are student-run organizations for LGBTQ+, questioning, and allied youth to build community and create a safe and brave space. Many youth discuss the issues impacting them in their schools and communities which have caused GSAs to evolve into vehicles for change.
The importance of a GSA in a school has been researched around the world and all results show the positive effects on students health and safety. Harassment and bullying is high among youth and having access to a GSA offers youth a safe space to share their experiences and find support.
Many GSAs focus on three pillars; Social, Support, and Direct Action. Every GSA reflects the environment, school climate, community climate, and the needs of the students accessing the club.
