BIPOC LGBTQ+ Youth Mentorship

The Boston Youth Resiliency and Recovery Collaborative (BYRRC) is an initiative co-chaired by two BPHC programs: the Capacity Building & Training Initiative (CBTI) based within the Division of Violence Prevention (DVP) and the Office of Recovery Services. BYRRC activities under this RFP are funded via the FY21 Opioid Affected Youth Initiative (more info about OAYI).

BYRRC aims to prevent youth substance use and violence by catalyzing positive community and systems change; we do this through bringing together City and community stakeholders serving Boston’s youth and families to 1) inform Division of Violence Prevention and Recovery Services programming and priorities; 2) connect and share resources across sectors; and 3) provide opportunities for dialogue and building of shared language and knowledge.

BYRRC is seeking proposals from qualified youth-serving organizations to increase equitable access to high quality mentoring opportunities for Black, Indigenous and People of Color (BIPOC) LGBTQ+ young people. Specifically, via this funding and associated supports BYRRC is seeking to enhance the selected organization’s capacity to provide trauma-informed and equitable mentoring programming and to reach a greater number of Boston’s BIPOC LGBTQ + Youth over a three-year period.
