Review for Free2Be (Free2Be LGBTQ Resource Center & Free2Be Safe Anti-Violence Project), Huntsville, AL, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

GLBT Advocacy & Youth Services is an excellent service-oriented organization for the GLBTQ youth and adults they serve in Huntsville and surrounding areas in North Alabama. They started with so little and have grown to a bigger location due to their growth in helping others in the GLBTQ community. Jame Robinson and his volunteers have participated in many community activities in order to expand their outreach to any GLBTQ youth and adults that may not have any supports systems at home, school, or work. They hold support group meetings for GLBTQ youth and adults so they can have a safe place to meet others in the GLBTQ community. They have been recognized in the media for the work and in helping students fight discrimination in their own school. I havent got to volunteer as much as I had planned due to living and working in Tennessee, but I would definitely devote my time to helping James and his other colleagues in making GLBT Advocacy & Youth Services a safe place for all people.

Review for Free2Be (Free2Be LGBTQ Resource Center & Free2Be Safe Anti-Violence Project), Huntsville, AL, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

GLBT Advocacy & Youth Services is a wonderful and vital non-profit organization that advocates for and supports gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, and questioning youth as well as adults in the North Alabama region. James Robinson works very hard in trying to secure funding to keep this organization alive for the benefit of our glbtq youth and adults. The organization offers a variety of services from peer support groups to a host home program. I, myself, have attended and assisted several safe schools workshops in Alabama and South Florida as well as volunteered for several glbtq youth events in South Florida. So I can recognize a great and valuable organization from my own experience as well as from the viewpoint of an educator that accepts all youth from all backgrounds. So please support GLBT Advocacy & Youth Services if you can so our youth will have a safe place to go and be themselves.
