On June 12th, we'll roll up our sleeves and save lives! We will proudly partner with the American Red Cross to hold what we expect to be the first of many blood drives.

Many are now able to donate blood through a new inclusive screening process that expands blood donor eligibility and eliminates questions based on sexual orientation through updated FDA guidelines issued in 2023. The American Red Cross celebrates this significant progress and also recognizes there is more work to be done to make blood donation even more inclusive.

Each pint of blood we collect can help save up to three lives and will touch the lives of so many more. What a great way to pay it forward and make an impact on people in our community and across the country. We are very excited about the drive, and we hope you are too.

We hope to see you at the Hillside Community Center on Friday, June 12, between 12 and 5 pm! β€οΈπŸ§‘πŸ’›πŸ’šπŸ’™πŸ’œπŸ–€πŸ€ŽπŸ’™πŸ€πŸ’—

Thank you Angelique Fantastique and Hysteria Brooks for bringing the entertainment, to our phenomenal security team for making us feel safe, to all the volunteers and IOYS board members who helped plan and make this event come to life, and to the makeup artists and hair stylists who made sure that young folx felt as fabulous as they deserve for their prom. And of course, thank you to our sponsors and donors, because we couldn't host events like this without support from our community. Happy Pride β€οΈπŸ§‘πŸ’›πŸ’šπŸ’™πŸ’œπŸ–€πŸ€ŽπŸ’™πŸ€πŸ’—

πŸ“£ Conversion therapy is still illegal in Colorado! πŸ“£

Thanks to the tireless work of our friends at One Colorado, countless advocates across the state, and Colorado lawmakers, HB26-1322 became law on the first day of Pride Month.

HB26-1322, "Civil Actions for Conversion Therapy Survivors," protects Coloradans from this widely discredited and deeply harmful practice by redefining conversion therapy in Colorado law to address the ruling in Chiles v Salazar. Moreover, the law extends the statute of limitations for conversion therapy, so survivors can seek justice long after being subjected to this harmful "treatment."

LGBTQIA2+ youth deserve affirmation, respect, and safety. We thank everyone working to ensure their rights and protections remain intact. β€οΈπŸ§‘πŸ’›πŸ’šπŸ’™πŸ’œπŸ–€πŸ€ŽπŸ’™πŸ€πŸ’—
