October Mission Focus

The Ken­neth Young Cen­ter is proud to offer inclu­sive and affirm­ing LGBTQ+ resources, men­tal health and sub­stance use treat­ment and recov­ery, and sup­port to the LGBTQ+ com­mu­ni­ty in the North­west suburbs. 

It offers youth and young adult pro­gram­ming, advo­ca­cy oppor­tu­ni­ties, pro­fes­sion­al train­ing, and com­mu­ni­ty events through­out the year.

At the LGBTQ+ Cen­ter, LGBTQ+ indi­vid­u­als can find oppor­tu­ni­ties for social gath­er­ings, net­work­ing, job and career sup­port by being involved with pro­gram­ming nights, com­mu­ni­ty events, vol­un­teer­ing, or being a part of our Youth Advi­so­ry Coun­cil (YAC) or North Sub­ur­ban Pride Net­work for queer pro­fes­sion­als and allies.
