Generation Collaboration

In this episode of Generation Collaboration, Brayden and Sonakshi visited Inside Out Youth Services, an organization building access, equity, and power with LGBTQIA2+ young people, through leadership, advocacy, community-building, education, and peer support. They spoke with Jessie Pocock (she/her), the executive director and CEO of Inside Out Youth Services, and Casper (he/they), a high school senior in Colorado's 49th school district and a peer recovery coach, to learn more about how IOYS supports and advocates for queer youth in their community.

Generation Collaboration is produced in partnership with Colorado Young Leaders and Youth on Record, with support from CiviCo, Colorado’s community leadership development organization to activate civic-minded leaders.
