Story

Action Camp is a 5-day sleepaway camp that brings together LGBTQ+ youth from across Illinois to learn from one another and shape the safer schools movement.

A partnership between Youth Services' Pride Youth Program and The Alliance, a program of Public Health Institute of Metropolitan Chicago, Action Camp was founded in 2012 since then has grown to provide an incredible summer experience for more than 60 young people each year.

“Action Camp gave me hope for the future. Now I know I can grow up and be happy, have a job that brings me joy, and be absolutely free. ~ Action Camp 2024 Camper

Your support will help Action Camp remain a site of joy, transformation, and queer magic!
