Time	Tuesday, October 19 · 7:30pm - 9:00pm
Location	Q Center 4115 N Mississippi Portland, OR
Created By	Q Center
More Info	Tuesday, October 19th, Q Center and SMYRC to Host Youth-Focused Forum: “We Are Here” This past month, the LGBTQ Community has been shaken to its core with news that 5 young people have committed suicide, suicides that were direct results of sustained, unwarranted bullying and harassment because of their sexual orientation. The public outcry has been great–and admirable–and Q Center and SMYRC (Sexual Minority Youth Resource Center...) will sustain this momentum, seizing the opportunity to take tangible action in the wake of these horrific, needless tragedies. As has been said, one suicide is a tragedy. Several is a crisis. The LGBTQ Community must work together–and quickly–to stem the tide.
