National Center for Youth Law

Legal Aid & Advocacy · Colorado · Free

Legal advocacy for marginalized youth including LGBTQ+ youth in foster care and juvenile justice. For LGBTQ+ people needing help with name/gender ID changes, second-parent adoption, discrimination, immigration, or estate planning. Discrimination claims have short windows — federal EEOC is 180–300 days from the incident depending on state. Some states still have anti-LGBTQ+ adoption restrictions for religious agencies; private secular agencies are usually safer. Free, confidential, and open to anyone...
