Youth and Young Adult Resources & Programs
We envision a future where all members of the greater Rochester LGBTQ+ communities, at all stages of their lives, are free to be fully participating citizens, celebrating their lives in which they are safe, stable and fully respected.
On-Going Programs For LGBTQ+ & Allied Youth and Young Adults
U DJ Dance Night: Last Friday of the month, 7-10pm, ages 13 to 20 at the Out Alliance. Dance night where you get to DJ! Food and beverages provided.
We also offer weekly and monthly events, including game nights, coffee houses, family pot-luck dinners, and hang outs.
Special Programming
Big Queer Prom: An all-out queer prom experience held every spring. Our prom is open to people ages 13-20 years of age of all identities and offers a welcoming, inclusive and energetic space to be yourself!
Youth Lock-Ins Our lock-ins are held twice a year and give our youth a chance to spend the night in the Out Alliance Community Center and enjoy being in community. The lock-in begins at 7 p.m. and ends at 7 a.m. During this time, we watch movies, play games, and learn about the history and struggles of our LGBTQ+ pioneers.
LGBTQ+ Movie Series: A film series that periodically runs on the second Tuesday of the month. Enjoy an LGBTQ+ themed movie and engage in discussion afterwards. Snacks and beverages provided.
