YOUTH ADVISORY BOARD

Ages 14-22

FREE!

Are you an Innovative visionary? Problem solver? Creative leader? Community builder? Looking to find ways to turn your anger into advocacy? Do you want to tell the world why you matter? Join OUT Maine’s Youth Advisory Board!

OUT Maine’s Youth Advisory Board will provide a place where you can be heard, and learn leadership and community-building skills through opportunities with your peers, in your communities, and statewide. You, as a member of the Board, will work together with OUT Maine Staff to give feedback on OUT Maine programming, present new ideas, outreach to your peers, with potential room for creating new programming opportunities. A stipend is provided for all Board members. This is a one-year commitment with the hope that members can commit to weekly meetings for the first few months. Meetings will be virtual with some in-person opportunities.

We are looking for LGBTQ+ young people fourteen and older living in the State of Maine. 

Are you interested in joining? Please fill out this form and feel free to reach out to Maggie with any questions by email: maggie@outmaine.org.

YOUTH TAKING ACTION

Ages 11 – 18
FREE!

Our Youth Taking Action Groups take MANY shapes! Any program where OUT Maine supports students and teaches them to address issues of concern — starting a GSTA, achieving gender neutral bathrooms, school policy changes, etc. — meets this definition! Do you have a problem relating to your experience as an LGBTQ+ youth? Want to make change in your school? Do you think we can help? We’d love to hear from you!

To join, please email program@outmaine.org.
