We’re looking for new Youth Centers and Services to take part in The Rainbow Award!
This award provides an in-depth, action-focused programme to help youth centres and services across Ireland to be fully inclusive of LGBTQ+ young people, completely free of charge.
Join us for a one-hour online session to hear about the Rainbow Award, how your service can get involved and the resources and supports available such as training sessions for staff and volunteers, one to one supports, networking meetings to share best practice and e-learning modules.
When: August 21st, 12pm-1pm
Where: Zoom

Participating in the Rainbow Award has given WSTCYS a great opportunity to reflect on our strengths and areas for continuous improvement in our LGBTQ+ youth work. Most importantly it has allowed us to recognise, evidence and celebrate our achievements in co-designing safe and inclusive spaces with our LGBTQ+ young people where they are seen, heard, valued and supported for who they are.
