RESOURCE GUIDE - CONGREGATIONAL CONVERSATION GUIDE
Outlast Youth’s faith-based team has internally compiled a collection of outlines for congregations of faith to engage in the topic of LGBTQ youth homelessness. Outlines include: sermon, small group/bible study, staff conversation, racial disparities, and more! Vol. 2 to be released in Spring 2020! 

NOTE: This resource seeks to bridge the progressive and conservative theological gap.

RESOURCE GUIDE - GUIDING FAMILIES OF LGBT+ LOVED ONES: EXPANDED EDITION - LEAD THEM HOME
