The Partnership for Community Action (PFCA) has launched a new countywide program, known as the YAS! CLUB (Your Authentic Self). YAS! Club is a vibrant youth program designed to create a safe and inclusive space for Queer youth and their allies.

The club offers a platform for youth to form meaningful friendships, engage in exciting activities, and find the support they need in their journey of self-discovery and acceptance. YAS! Club is not just a club, but a community that celebrates diversity, promotes understanding, and encourages everyone to embrace their authentic selves. The club offers a platform for members to form meaningful friendships, engage in exciting activities, and find the support they need in their journey of self-discovery and acceptance.

“This club and clubs like it have been proven to reduce suicidal ideation and isolation in youth and provide a safe place for them to access support and build community,” explains PFCA Director of Policy + Programming Jimmy Sellars.
