Follow along as these modern-day queer musketeers explore ways to create safe(r) communities – that are free (or at least protected) from such systematic brutalities. Discover why Rabia, Nicole, Sydney, and Destiny believe that prioritizing community-led harm reduction and safety programming is needed to #BuildBetter futures for Ontario’s 2STLGBQIA+ youth.
