To us, this includes masc of centre folks and guys who are trans, intersex, Two-Spirit and cis, and non-binary people. As an organization that strives to be anti-oppressive and inclusive, we work towards creating safer spaces for all young people in our communities, including those of us who are living with HIV and/or Hep C!

Mpowerment events are for youth ages 16 - 29 years old to connect and hang out with each other. We ask that if you're outside of this age range that you message us ahead of time to chat more about what being involved can look like. ▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ ACCESSIBILITY Our space is located on the second floor, accessible by elevator or stairs.
