JASMYN: Building Safe Futures for LGBTQ Youth

Written By JaxRCPride

JASMYN has long been a lifeline for LGBTQ+ youth in Northeast Florida. Offering mental health counseling, housing support, HIV testing, and a community drop-in center, JASMYN helps young people thrive as their authentic selves. They also provide leadership programs, support groups, and advocacy training to empower the next generation of LGBTQ+ leaders. As anti-LGBTQ+ legislation spreads across the country, JASMYN’s work is more important than ever. Investing in youth is investing in a stronger, more compassionate future for Jacksonville.

Fun Fact: JASMYN helps teens as far as Georgia!
