About SPLASH Youth of Northern Colorado

SPLASH Youth of Northern Colorado provides regular age- and identity-based meet-ups, peer-led groups, family support, resource referrals, trainings, and special events for LGBTQIA+ young people across Larimer and Weld counties. Programming is designed to build protective factors against self-harm, substance misuse, and youth homelessness by increasing social connectedness, leadership skills, and access to services.

In recent years SPLASH has expanded from weekly youth groups into a community hub (Prism Palace), launched a youth-run zine (Queeriosity), developed targeted support groups for trans and neurodivergent youth, and opened an intentional transitional housing program for LGBTQ+ young adults at risk of homelessness.

Regional funding & community support

Received notable community grants and donations in recent years (including mid‑2020s local philanthropic support) that enabled program expansion and housing efforts.
