City of Philadelphia
The DBHIDS Community-Based Initiatives team is proud to host an upcoming LGBTQIA+ Youth of Color listening session in partnership with the Mazzoni Center.
This session aims to better understand the unique needs of LGBTQIA+ youth of color in Philadelphia, foster meaningful connections, and increase access to services.
This session is for people ages 14 to 24 and will create a brave space for youth to share their lived experiences, challenges, and aspirations, particularly around mental and behavioral health. This dialogue will help DBHIDS identify barriers and bridges to well-being, explore what support they need from providers, discuss access to resources , and determine how initiatives like Engaging Males of Color, Engaging Women & Girls of Color, and the LGBTQIA+ Initiative can better support.
