Supporting Maine LGBTQ+ through Ongoing Programs
At OUT Maine, we seek to strengthen communities by changing the very systems that serve youth — schools, health care, foster care, community organizations, and more. At the center of our efforts are youth programs that include weekly groups and activities, a scholarship program, our free chest binder program, youth overnights, and more parent and teen programs that support LGBTQ+ youth and help create welcoming, safe spaces. You’ll find inclusion training, LGBTQ+ education resources, kits for educators and professionals, that programs and help medical and mental health professionals that support LGBTQ+ youth. Our statewide approach is an expanding circle of support and connection. No other organization in Maine focuses exclusively on listening and responding to the needs of LGBTQ+ youth.
