Support QHI's First Annual Unity Conference

QHI is raising money to bring queer and trans youth to 91ÁÔÆæ's first annual Unity Conference! We got most of the way there during the 91ÁÔÆæ Day of Giving but still need a little bit more support to help bring the first cohort of local middle school students to campus for an empowering community-building event.

Our Vision

Drawing on our expertise in youth development, community-engaged programming, and research, 91ÁÔÆæ’s Queer Hope Institute (QHI) works to create a world that celebrates the inherent dignity of queer and trans youth, empowering them to imagine and pursue hopeful futures and live meaningful, fulfilling lives.
