Testimonials
I love the Centre so much, when I moved to Canada I felt really alone, and the Centre really helped me to find my people and feel way less alone. It gave me so much space for self expression in a non judgmental investment and it’s truly my second home. Every time there is a youth drop in I always can’t wait and when I’m there I’m just hoping it won’t end. I love eating with everyone and meeting really amazing people, and it’s a very safe space for me to talk about things I can’t talk about with anyone else sometimes.

I have found a sense of community at the center, and being around other queer people my age has helped me come to terms with my own queerness. The center has given me a safe haven and a place to laugh and smile. I always look forward to hanging out every week!

We humbly and gratefully acknowledge that we are gathered on the unceded territory of the Kanien’kehà:Ka (Mohawk) people. This land has historically served as a meeting place for many Indigenous nations, including the Haudenosaunee and the Anishinaabe, and is currently home to Indigenous communities from across Turtle Island and the world.
