Mission Statement 

To create and ensure a safe and nurturing environment for sexual and gender minority youth in families, schools, and communities, while reducing risk behaviors so they can develop emotionally, physically, socially and intellectually into healthy adults.
 

Services

J.U.S.T. for Youth provides training to adult providers of services to youth, and programming for sexual and gender minority youth. The J.U.S.T. (Justice, Unity, Safety and Tolerance) for Youth Coalition is comprised of numerous organizations in the State of Delaware focused on lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and questioning (LGBTQ) youth and health promotion.

Our board meets every month to work on advancing the strategic plan, which includes identifying needs and providing professional development and support for sexual minority youth.

If your organization is committed to culturally competent services for LGBTQ youth and would like to join our coalition of agencies and Steering Committee, please contact us!
