MYN provides oppourtunites for youth to get out and have some fun through the Mosaic Youth Group which provides queer movie screenings, arts and craft nights, education and interest speakers as well as monthly outings to various location within Calgary.
We also produce 2 monthly drag shows which encourage a range of performance oppertunities at two queer friendly locations, and the publication of Gibble-Kit zine giving youth a voice through prose, comics and art.
The Miscellaneous Youth Network also provides Information Sessions/Educational Seminars to groups and organizations regarding the challenges faced by Queer Identified and Trans Youth.
Our Objectives:
- Continue publication of the Gibble.Kit zine.
- Acquire an adequate space or building downtown to work out of.
- Create and implement multiple workshops for youth and adults alike that educate on a range of issues with regards to the GBLQQTT community.
- Have a drop-in center and peer support help-line available several days a week.
- Network with other organizations in the city to provide a greater spectrum of resources and support.
- Help youth to advocate for themselves and start their own programs and projects.
