Being a teenager can be tough.
But we've got supports to get you through those tough times.
Rainbow Coffee: Every Wednesday from 4:30-9pm ages 14-19
Safe space. Good times. Both of those are big aspects of our queer youth group that runs every Wednesday from 4:30pm until 9:00pm for LGBTQ2S youth and their allies ages 14-19, and features a free supper. Rainbow Coffee is a city-wide network of queer youth who are looking for community, friendship, and solidarity. The group first started in 2012 with a small group of regulars and has since grown to have a weekly turn out of around 30 youth! Made up of students from almost every high school in Saskatoon as well as students from surrounding towns, Rainbow Coffee is a great place to meet people who are just like you.
