Give Us The Floor (GUTF) is a non-profit organization providing Queer youth in distress nationwide with a supportive community of their peers in a safe, online environment. Our inclusive group chats provided through our free mobile app give 2SLGBTQIA+ youth and allies a safe coping tool to break the isolation and shame cycles they so often experience.

Trained youth facilitate the confidential and anonymous groups, and participants help each other talk through prevalent mental health and social issues such as depression, loneliness, anxiety, identity, discrimination, bullying, relationships, domestic violence, and body image.

After just one month in the program:

• 83% feel less lonely
• 78% say the program helped them with their struggles
• 70% report improved mental health97% say the space feels safe

We are launching a more focused program for New Mexico youth in 2025. Organizations like Eric Oppenheimer Family Foundation, Frost Foundation and Modern Elder Academy are already on board, and together we're committed to raising the bar for GUTF in connections, education, inspiration, and engagement of resources. In partnership we can impact 900 Queer youth in NM over the next 3 years.

Every young person deserves to grow up feeling safe, seen, and hopeful. We need partners and champions to help us raise awareness of this free lifeline.
