Why Safe Spaces ?

Safe Spaces is more than an organization—it’s a movement for dignity, equality, and resilience. By addressing the intersection of health, gender, and poverty, it creates a pathway for marginalized girls to overcome adversity and thrive.

Building Community and Networking

Education and Awareness

Safe spaces also serve as educational platforms, fostering understanding and awareness about LGBTQ+ issues..

“Having explicit queer spaces highlights to people that we are a safe space for them, and they won’t be discriminated against in our space."

"We are not specifically a queer space, but we have always made it very clear that queer, trans and LGBTQI+  people of all ages are very welcome at Rumpus Room. We want everyone to feel like they can be themselves when they come to a space like this, and their gender identity and sexuality will never be a barrier to that, in fact, we want to build confidence and nourish relationships with those people

“We see creating a safe space as an ongoing thing, and our staff and volunteers go through training on multiple things (including race, disability and LGBTQI+ awareness) to understand how to create and uphold a safe space. We also have an external diversity auditor to currently reviewing our current policies and continue to improve our service.

Safe spaces mean everyone moves easily without fear.
