DURHAM, N.C. — iNSIDEoUT, a youth-led organization that serves lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, intersex, questioning, queer and allied youth in Wake, Durham, Orange, Vance, Person, Franklin, Granville and Warren counties, will be starting a program in the Triangle for children ages 7-12 years old this coming fall. The program is especially for children of diverse gender identities and expressions and children of same-sex parents or other alternative families.
The group will hold bi-monthly meetings every other Sunday afternoon from 3-5 p.m. beginning in the Fall of 2011. Meetings will include a variety of fun, social, educational, activist and support-related events and occasional outings to fun places around the Triangle. Children will also have the option to participate in an indoor overnight retreat. Cost is $30-60 per child based on a sliding scale. Meeting location will be sent to registered participants. A parental release form which can be downloaded online must accompany payment via mail to iNSIDEoUT, 1303 Clarendon St., Apt. B, Durham, NC 27705.
