About Me

St. Louis Based Social Support Organization for youth who live near St. Louis and who are 21 and under and may identity as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender or questioning their sexual orientation or gender identity.Growing American Youth started back in 1979 (thus the reason we are listed as 29 years old.) This myspace account was set up by the advisors of Growing American Youth. This is a great way for youth across the area to see each other as well as a great way for us to get info out. We'd love to hear from more youth!We meet EVERY Thursday night at Trinity Episcopal Church 600 N. Euclid at Washington in the Central West End. FYI We are not a religious organization. The church is generous and has historically given us a great space to meet. (Thank you Trinity!)This myspace page is also a chance to reconnect with youth and adults who have gone to Growing American Youth in the past. Give us an update on how you are doing.For those youth just learning about us come for a visit. Bring a friend! Message us for more info.
