Nomination Form
The Queer Youth Leadership Award is given annually to queer youth who are 12 to 18 years of age to acknowledge their accomplishments and the contributions they have made to their communities, whether this be in their homes, schools, religious institutions, athletic or academic teams, or other social groups.
These youth are leaders of today who show a promise for the future. They are out and have made a difference by overcoming obstacles in their own lives, or by working on projects that have benefited their community. We encourage nominations for role models representing various races, cultures, languages, religions, ages, genders, classes, abilities, levels of education, and geographical locations.
