One Colorado is kicking off a statewide education and outreach tour at the end of September to connect with communities in 15 cities throughout the state. From Colorado Springs to Fort Collins, from Grand Junction to Aurora, from Pueblo to Glenwood Springs, we are hitting the road to hear about what matters most to Coloradans in a time when the LGBTQ+ community is facing unprecedented attacks.
From the over 520 anti-LGBTQ+ bills introduced in legislatures across the country to the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision in the 303 Creative LLC v. Elenis case to the current constitutional ban on same sex marriage in Colorado, we know we can’t back down. We must come together to talk about how this climate is impacting us and our families, and what we can do to organize together for a brighter future.

About the Queer Youth Summit
One Colorado developed the first Queer Youth Summit in 2014 to establish create a welcoming and safe environment for LGBTQIA+ students in Colorado schools to address the issues and challenges they face. Over the years we have partnered with Gender & Sexuality Alliances (GSA) and students across the state to create a forum for students, parents and guardians, and educators to gather, learn, and dialogue through various workshops, panels, and interactive sessions. Participants have the opportunity to interact with peers and mentors, meet new people, share their experiences, shift and deepen their understanding, and improve their capacity to promote constructive change for LGBTQ+ students in Colorado. While the primary focus of this event is by and for young people, parents, college students, and other allied community members are all warmly welcomed.

One Colorado is seeking Workshop Proposals for our 2023 Queer Youth Summit. Workshops from youth serving organizations and those that are youth-led will be prioritized. Applications accepted through August 10, 2023.
