QUEERSPACE collective

Queer & Trans youth deserve more than safe. Help us build belonging and joy! 🌈

Pride has always been about more than visibility. It’s about creating a world where Queer and Trans people are not just safe, but celebrated, connected, empowered, and free to fully be themselves.

At QUEERSPACE collective, that’s the future we’re building every day for 2SLGBTQIA+ youth.

This Pride Month, we’re launching our More Than Safe Campaign with a goal of raising $25,000 by the end of June to sustain affirming programs, mentorship, workshops, and the QS Youth Center.

Queer and Trans youth deserve spaces where they can laugh loudly, explore their identity, build confidence, find community, and create bright futures.

They deserve joy, belonging, connection, and support.

They deserve more than safe.

Starting May 28, join our Give OUT Day campaign by starting your own fundraiser to support Queer and Trans youth.

Peer-to-peer fundraising is one of the most powerful ways to spread awareness, build community support, and amplify our mission during Pride season.

Whether you raise $50 or $500, your voice matters.

At a time when Queer and Trans youth continue to face isolation, hostility, and uncertainty, spaces of belonging matter more than ever.

Thank you for helping us build something bigger than safety. Thank you for helping us build belonging.

QUEERSPACE collective is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization offering 1:1 youth mentorship, inclusivity consulting, group programming, and now, a dedicated 2SLGBTQIA+ youth drop-in center in Minneapolis. We're not just creating space, we're actively transforming the interpersonal, community, and systemic structures that shape Queer lives.

Our mission is to create space for 2SLGBTQIA+ youth to feel safe and empowered to be their true selves.  Our youth-centered approach not only reduces isolation and suicidal ideation but also fosters belonging, resilience, and empowerment.

Our vision is for all 2SLGBTQIA+ youth to have a supportive community to help them develop a strong sense of pride in who they are, where they come from, and where they want to go.
