Mission Statement

SMYAL supports and empowers LGBTQ+ youth. We actively work to create a world where queer and trans youth thrive through affirming programs and services designed to develop critical life skills, build community, and foster a sense of belonging.

About This Cause

SMYAL supports LGBTQ+ youth ages 6-24 by providing safe, affirming spaces where they can express themselves, find support, and build community. Based in Washington, DC, our programs reach youth across the metropolitan area and beyond. For over forty years, SMYAL has been dedicated to meeting the unique needs of queer and trans youth, eliminating the barriers that prevent them from thriving as they grow into adulthood. While our programs and services to meet LGBTQ+ youth’s most urgent needs may change, our commitment to supporting queer and trans youth never will.
