Watch Horizons’ New Video

“When you are doing work that is cutting edge, you have to have visionary support.”
B. Cole, Executive Director, Brown Boi Project

We are so excited to highlight three of our grantees, and share more with you about the work that is happening at Horizons Foundation. 

 

LYRIC

Grantee Since 1991
LYRIC’s mission is to build community and inspire positive social change through education enhancement, career trainings, health promotion, and leadership development with LGBTQQ youth, their families, and allies of all races, classes, genders, and abilities.

The Brown Boi Project

Grantee since 2012
The Brown Boi Project is a community of people working across race and gender to eradicate sexism, homophobia and transphobia and create healthy frameworks of masculinity and change.

Somos Familia

Grantee since 2008
Somos Familia supports Latino families with children who are lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender or queer (LGBTQ*) and conducts education to create family and community acceptance. The group was started by two mothers to support other families with similar experiences.

A special thank you to Jodi Schwartz, B. Cole, and Laurin Mayeno for their participation in this video, and to our filmmakers Rebekah Fergusson and Tory Jeffay– their support made this video possible.
