Welcome to Sanctuary Collective

We are excited that you're here!

Since we are separated by the computer screen, let us tell you a bit about who we are and what we do.

The Sanctuary Collective inspires, empowers, and supports young LGBTQ people and allies as they live and organize for justice in Christian Communities by training them and connecting them with a supportive collective of people - because every person can be a force for change in their own community and in the world.

Why “Sanctuary Collective”? | What's with all the letters? (LGBTQ?)

Getting Started

When examining intersections of faith and the LGBTQ experience, we've identified three stages where we found ourselves along this journey, and we hope one or two or all of them will be helpful to you as you determine what actions are the best for you to take in your own life and community.

How Do I Love Myself or a Person Who is LGBTQ?

How Do I Talk to Others?

How Do I Make it Bigger than Myself?

You are not alone. Find out how you can get support and give support in this journey.
