What We Accomplished This Year This fall alone highlighted the program’s reach and creativity: Queer Futures hosted affinity events to help transgender, nonbinary, and gender-expansive people - and their families! - prepare for complicated holiday dynamics with connection and support. The Youth Leadership Committee committed to planning another Youth Leadership Summit, continuing a tradition of youth-led vision and voice. Youth engagement extended far beyond Steamboat. In partnership with Partners for Youth, the team supported a Halloween event in Hayden, co-created by the Hayden Youth Council, a group with a large LGBTQ+ presence that effectively functions as the school’s GSA. Queer Futures also helped launch Colorado’s first statewide rural LGBTQ+ coalition, a collaboration expected to grow and potentially serve as a national model for rural queer organizing. On the national stage, staff continued shaping conversations around intimate partner violence (IPV). Presentations at the International Bisexual+ Research Conference led to a request for a publication by renowned activist Robin Ochs, while an ongoing partnership with the National LGBTQ+ Institute on IPV is producing a survivor-informed research brief and critical updates to national IPV data. Meanwhile, daily community work continued to expand. Programs like Revolution is a Relay - an intergenerational affinity space for transgender, nonbinary, and genderqueer people - launched with meaningful participation and heartfelt feedback. Data gathered this year confirmed that Queer Futures is effectively reaching the communities it was built to serve: youth, trans and nonbinary people, and bisexual and pansexual individuals, who made up more than half of all participants. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67928818cf79005becf5df34/1764882537819-OPDT7ATL1OQFWR9NZ0O6/Pride.jpg News & Stories - Discover Queer Futures -

next year, Queer Futures is preparing to deepen and expand: School-based outreach and youth partnership strategies, responding to national declines in youth participation The Youth Leadership Summit and other youth-led programming Statewide coalition-building to strengthen rural LGBTQ+ support systems Ongoing research and national partnerships around bisexual+ IPV Signature community events like Pride and Pow, in partnership with the City of Steamboat Springs With increasing demand and shifting political realities, sustaining this work is both urgent and possible.

significant portion of Better Tomorrow’s direct service work has historically been supported through federal funding streams connected to domestic violence prevention, victim advocacy, and child protection. Over the past year, rapid federal policy shifts, rule changes, legal challenges, and reimbursement delays have created real instability within those systems. Even when funding is not eliminated outright, disruptions in timing can strain organizations like ours. All of our contracted federal grants are reimbursable. This means we must first pay staff and operate programs before receiving payment from the government. When reimbursements are delayed or conditions shift unexpectedly, the financial risk falls on the organization and ultimately impacts the people who rely on us. We cannot allow instability in Washington to determine access to care in the Yampa Valley.
