These scans come from my rather large magazine collection. Instead of filling my house with old moldy magazines, I scanned them (in most cases, photographed them) and filled a storage area with moldy magazines. Now these old stories reside on an external hard drive. I thought others might appreciate these tidbits of forgotten history.

Lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, transsexual, queer and questioning (LGBTQ) youth are overrepresented in the homeless youth population. It has been estimated that approximately 25-40% of homeless youth identify as LGBTQ. A large proportion of youth are either kicked out of the house or forced to leave home after coming-out to their family as LGBTQ. Therefore, homophobia and transphobia are major causes of youth homelessness. For more information on homelessness and LGBTQ youth please visit the Homeless Hub: www.homelesshub.ca
