Quinton
Impact Coordinator, Youth Facilitator/Speaker
“My journey is one of self-discovery and self-actualization. Growing up as a marginalized youth who struggled with identity, self-acceptance and mental health, it soon became apparent to me that I would have to rebuild my self-esteem and values from within. Though I often struggled on my journey to self-acceptance, eventually it became as natural as breathing. Now I try to aid others as best as I can through their own journey to self-acceptance, whatever that looks like for them. My journey with Youthspeak began in April 2021, and I’ve been sharing my story and the lessons I’ve learned since.”

We are currently recruiting people who have a passion to contribute to the overall well-being of youth by joining our Board of Directors and/or other volunteer opportunities. The benefits of volunteering include excellent opportunity for involvement in a meaningful experience, the satisfaction of making a difference in the community and with youth, an opportunity to work with individuals of diverse backgrounds, the development of effective decision-making skills and an increased understanding of group dynamics and relationships.
