4Q6’s mission is to empower LGBTQ+ youth across Montana by providing education, resources, and community-building opportunities. They do this by equipping queer youth with knowledge and leadership tools to promote gender and sexuality justice, creating more equitable spaces for themselves and others, and shaping their futures with self-determination. They primarily focus on middle and high school youth in Yellowstone County. All of the programming they create works to simultaneously increase protective factors and decrease risk factors to help youth thrive on an individual and community level.
