Queers of the Cornfield - Part 1 (Columbus, OH)
We’ve made it to the fourth stop on our queer roadtrip: Columbus, OH! In this episode, you’ll meet the queer youth at the Kaleidoscope Youth Center (KYC), the largest and longest-standing organization in Ohio solely dedicated to serving and supporting LGBTQIA+ youth since 1994. You’ll hear directly from the members of KYC’s Summer Institute, a paid program for queer youth to develop as leaders and build community. Learn what it’s really like to be a queer young person living in a “cornfield state.” Plus, an interview between a KYC regular and the center’s Civic Engagement and Advocacy Manager. This is Part 1 of 2 of our visit to Columbus, Ohio. 📝 RESOURCES/SHOW NOTES: Visit our site for full show notes on local queer info, history, and additional resources mentioned in this episode → https://thefutureperfectproject.org/podcast#s3e7 We want to hear from you!
