Children’s Home Society of Washington & Childhaven are now Akin. Triple Point, a program of Children’s Home Society, is a safe haven support group for LGBTQ+ youth ages 11 to 17 years old, and those 18 years old who are enrolled in high school or a GED program. Triple Point offers a free weekly drop-in for queer youth to just hang out, as well as more structured support groups for middle school, high school, and trans youth, where youth have the opportunity to explore their ideas and identities, connect with their peers, and learn about supportive community agencies and programs. Youth gain access to community resources and referrals, queer literature and art, teamwork and leadership activities, safe supportive adults and peers, and free mental health services.
