2025 has seen a rise of the need for safe space for LGBTQ+ youth. In response we are expanding chatroom hours so we need your help to keep LGBTQ+ young people safe!
Moderated chatrooms allow us to offer a space where young people can gather, form community, and support and uplift each other. We offer online chatrooms available to LGBTQIA+ youth. Trained moderators take the lead within those chatrooms to make sure the chatroom stays safe and appropriate. We’re looking for moderators who can find the balance between leading a conversation and providing a space where young people can find their own voice and create their own topics. Additionally, moderators safeguard the rooms from trolls and hate speech to create a safe space for young people to feel comfortable to be themselves and to grow.
