Overview

"Young people within the LGBTQ community often find themselves without mentors as they begin to discover their gender and sexual identities, and potentially put their safety at risk by attempting to learn more about themselves online. LGBTQ+A is a digital safe space app prototype where those discovering their identities are able to connect with others like themselves and learn from those with similar experiences, making the LGBTQ+ community accessible to queer individuals all over the world." --Abstract.
