Jeunes Queer Youth organises two leadership summits a year.
It’s a chance for youth to meet, network and attend workshops related to sexual health and overall wellbeing. Best of all, it’s free!
Two types of summits are available for youth to participate!
Safer Space Summit
The JQY Safer Space Summit happens once a year and is reserved for a smaller group of queer and trans youth. The focus is on information sharing and covering more sensitive subjects that youth feel are relevant to their specific needs.
Community Summit
The JQY Community Summit invites queer and trans youth, their allies as well as individuals from community organisations and schools to participate in a larger group setting. The focus for this yearly event is to network and to have youth connect with different resources available to them within the Montreal community.
They include
01. Information
Access to sexual health information and resources specific to queer and trans youth
02. Workshops
Access to bilingual sexual health workshops
03. Networking
Networking opportunities to meet other youth and community organisations
04. Platform
A platform for youth projects to be presented to other youth and the larger Montreal community
