About me:

Join Us THIS TUESDAY for Uncensored! Every 2nd Tuesday at 730pm! Through peer-to-peer outreach and education, we empower youth to make positive and healthy sexual choices.

Interested in getting involved? We are always looking for new members. If you consider yourself GLBTQ and are 22 or younger we'd love to meet you! Come to one of our upcoming meetings or events, send us an email, or say hi on myspace.
