PROJECT Q MISSION
The mission of Project Q is supported by the following goals:
- To provide culturally relevant, contemporary programs in a “for youth, by youth” space that aim for the positive cultural, social, educational, and emotional development of young adults;
- To advocate for and collaborate with programs and organizations that meet the varied needs of LGBTQA young adults and their communities;
- To empower young adults to make healthy (informed) decisions about sexual health (such as HIV/AIDS, sexually transmitted infections, and pregnancy.) as well as personal wellness (finances and relationships, for example);
- To design and implement activities which ensure diversity in every aspect of Project Q; and,
- To provide a space that affirms LGBTQA young adults to fully identify and express themselves without fear of ridicule and harassment.
