Stop on over at my place - http://shewillsing.blogspot.com if you have any ideas on how to lead a group on spirituality for this population.<BR/><BR/>A note on why projects like Sylvia's Place are so badly needed: the only city funded shelter for homeless teens is huge, impersonal, and actually dangerous for GLBT kids. It is run by a conservative faith based group. GLBT kids often report being attacked in the showers, having their belongings stolen, etc. It's not uncommon to hear "I sleep with my shoes so nobody takes them."<BR/><BR/>In addition, this large shelter is understaffed and treats GLBT kids with an attitude of "if you weren't gay, you wouldn't get attacked." <BR/><BR/>So Sylvia's Place and other similar projects are the only chance these kids have of finding safe shelter in this city.Sophiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02066521392849698323noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14710344.post-1168946992635959932007-01-16T06:29:00.000-05:002007-01-16T06:29:00.000-05:00what a wonderful projectwhat a wonderful projectSallyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01759963926280667938noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14710344.post-1168912200988167892007-01-15T20:50:00.000-05:002007-01-15T20:50:00.000-05:00Oh, thanks so much for telling us about this!Oh, thanks so much for telling us about this!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08235049965406944684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14710344.post-1168895039891829912007-01-15T16:03:00.000-05:002007-01-15T16:03:00.000-05:00Looks like a great project.
