For 35 years, Inside Out Youth Services has been a beacon of safety, support, and empowerment for LGBTQIA2+ young people in Colorado Springs. This year, as we celebrate this incredible milestone, we invite you to Ally-Up with us on August 14th from 7:30–8:30 AM at the Antlers Hotel to ensure the next 35 years are even stronger.
This isn’t just a breakfast—it’s a call to action. Your support fuels the programs that provide life-saving resources, mental health support, leadership development, and a space where every LGBTQIA2+ young person feels seen, valued, and celebrated. The past 35 years have been about building hope and resilience. The next 35 are about creating a future where every young person can thrive—but we can’t do it without you. Join us, show up for LGBTQIA2+ youth, and be a part of history in the making! 🌈 Reserve your table or ticket today—because the future starts with YOU!
Board members are vital to our mission of supporting LGBTQIA2+ youth in the Tava-Kaavi (Pikes Peak) region. We welcome individuals from diverse backgrounds and lived experiences who are passionate about equity, inclusion, and youth empowerment. As part of their service, board members help integrate diversity, equity, inclusion, and justice (DEIJ) principles into IOYS governance, committees, and overall culture.

Do you want to make a difference in the lives of LGBTQIA2+ youth? In addition to accepting donations, Inside Out offers multiple advocacy and volunteer opportunities.
Our programs support youth through discussion groups, drop-ins (online and in-person), outings, leadership opportunities, counseling, and food and clothing support. Our goal is to ensure that each of the lives we touch goes on to live a healthy and long existence as their authentic happy self.
Our adult workshops train parents and youth-serving adults how to advocate and support their youth through allyship and community resiliency. We also work with community partners, schools, and organizations to advocate for youth and teach them how to be inclusive, change-making leaders.
Every dollar you spend with us is put directly toward aiding and assisting the LGBTQIA2+ youth of the Pikes Peak region. Your thoughtful donation makes a big difference for the youth attending Inside Out.
