Zebra Coalition

Specialties

Our mission is to foster hope, dignity and self-​respect in lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and all youth (LGBT+) and to provide them an opportunity to grow up in a safe, healthy and supportive environment.

The Zebra Coalition® was established in response to the growing number of LGBT+ youth who are experiencing homelessness, bullying, extreme physical and sexual abuse, isolation from their families, and a wide range of life challenges or setbacks.

The Zebra Coalition® is a network of Central Florida social service providers, government agencies, schools, and colleges and universities that provide a full continuum of services to at-​risk LGBT+ youth. The Coalition assists young people facing homelessness; bullying; physical, sexual and drug abuse; and isolation from their families with individualized programs to guide them to recovery and stability.

The Zebra Coalition® is the only organization in Central Florida that can provide a full continuum of services to LGBT+ youth.
