Local: The CHRIS Kids Rainbow Program

The CHRIS Kids Rainbow Program provides a safe and supportive residence for homeless and runaway gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender and questioning youth. Rainbow is a transitional living life skills program for homeless and runaway sexual minority youth that provides both services and referrals. Life and job skills training are provided as youth become connected with a variety of community resources such as counseling, medical and legal services and volunteer opportunities.

National: GLSEN

Founded in 1990, GLSEN (The Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network) strives to assure that each member of every school community is valued and respected regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity/expression. GLSEN has successfully hosted eight national conferences to bring together student leaders, educators, chapter leaders and activists. GLSEN also sponsors the National Day of Silence, which close to two million students, teachers, and staff have been a part of at 3029 school campuses across the country. GLSEN's newest national project is National No Name Calling Week.
