Rainbow Youth Outreach first met on July 21, 1997 and continues to meet twice a month to serve the needs of the LGBTQA (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgendered and Questioning youth and their Allies) in Peoria, IL and surrounding communities. It is the only LGBTQA youth-serving organization in the area.
Rainbow Youth Outreach's Mission is to enhance the opportunities for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgendered, and questioning youth and their allies, ages 14-20, by providing a supportive environment so they can grow, prosper, and realize their full potential in the community and the world.
Rainbow Youth Outreach promotes a safe environment for the well-being of the youth. The program varies but includes discussion groups, forums, lectures, activities, snacks, videos, and more.
We meet on the 1st and 3rd Mondays of the month at the Downtown Peoria Public Library.
