Children’s Friend would like to thank the Boston Foundation Equality Fund for their $5,000 grant in support of the Gender Wellness Initiative. The Gender Wellness Initiative is our response to the inequitable treatment of youth who identify as LGBTQIA+ in central Massachusetts. The goal of GWI is to create safe, nurturing, and affirming spaces for some of the most intersectionally marginalized individuals in our community. Thank you Boston Foundation for partnering with us to serve the LGBTQIA+ youth and their families in our community!
