Gay
Lesbian Youth Services of Southeast Minnesota Welcomes you
to our web site.
GLYS has been supporting the gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender
and questioning youth of Southeastern Minnesota since 1992
in a confidential and nonjudgmental atmosphere that allows
them to be themselves. The youth come from Lanesboro, Spring
Valley, Zumbrota, Lake City, Plainview, Saint Charles, Winona,
Cannon Falls, Stewartville as well as Rochester.
While the main object of GLYS is to provide support we have
other activities such as volleyball, picnics, dances, bowling,
coffee night, game board night and movie night.
Check out the links and news & events pages for scholarship and upcoming Q-Quest conference information.

"GLYS has provided me with a sense of Communuty; a
pride that comes from knowing I am not the only gay youth
out there."
"to be open and free with other teens is the same as
discovering life"
