No matter what.
This was our theme from Celebrate the Love 2025, and it continues to be a call to action for me. Q***r and trans youth deserve access to affirming mental health care…no matter what. Q***r and trans youth deserve to be their authentic selves and to live lives free from oppression…no matter what.
But “no matter what” isn’t just about right now, it’s about our collective future as well. In this moment we’re choosing to look boldly forward by creating a new strategic plan that will guide our work for the next 3-5 years. We’re excited to share the full plan in early 2026, but two themes that have come from our conversations thus far are solidarity and community.
When others seek to separate and isolate us, we know that solidarity and community make us powerful and unstoppable. As a RECLAIM supporter, you are the community that empowers us to boldly create space for q***r and trans youth, both now and for many years to come. You are the community that makes our work possible.
Please join me in supporting RECLAIM for Give to the Max Day 2025. Our goal this year is $30,000, and all contributions up to $15,000 will be matched by generous support from the Clara Foundation…stretching our collective impact even further.
You can give right now on our GiveMN page at www.giveMN.org/reclaim.
In solidarity,
Ryan Fouts, RECLAIM Executive Director
