On October 17th the members of GATEWAY will hold another professional training in St. Lucie County. The Title is Cultural Considerations in Working with LGBTQ Youth. The cost is $25 and includes CEU's. We hope our work continues to support LGBTQ youth. For information contact me at lzeh@fchcinc.org. Take care! Lori
Unfortunately the youth expo we have planned is postponed until the Spring because of lack of finances. The good news is that our upcoming training on Oct 17th is acting as a fundraiser and the training fee will go toward the youth event. Plus we are partnering with the local ACLU people who will also contribute to the cost of the event. We are not giving up! Peace, Lori
The GATEWAY PROJECT team is planning a Youth Expo to be held this October.
We will be looking for vendors, local bands, and sponsors for this event.
Once we finalize the location and date I'll get back with you!
Thanks for your support! Lori

I moved here to
Florida 3 and 1/2 years ago from NYC. wow talk about culture shock.
Anyway it's been pretty cool so far I am loving the weather. All of
my family are still in NY but my partner and I have been making
some great friends here. I usually get back to NY once a month or
so. I am really a supporter of women and recognize how much power
and potential women have. So every chance I have I take to support
women in finding their personal power and goals and dreams. It's so
important that they believe in themselves. For the last year I have
been taking the lead to get the GLBTQ community recoginzed and
understood here in the Treasure Coast but it hasn't been the
easiest work. I'm hoping to meet more people in the Treasure Coast
area of Florida that may want to get involved with this movement to
bring awareness of GLBTQ issues to the local professional arena and
get the community involved in events. Check out our websites to get
an idea of what we are doing. If you want to get involved email me.
We meet 2x's a month in Port St. Lucie. Likewise if you have
anything to contribute (time, resources, ideas, space, or finances)
please let me know we are grateful for the assistance. Our goal is
to open a community center.
