Youth Services

Destination tomorrow is the home of "Da Spot Next Door" a name given to the programming provided to the young LGBTQ+ Community we serve, ages 14 to 24.



Da Spot Next Door

Da Spot Next Door operates from its “after school” drop in space from Tuesday through Saturday 2pm to 6pm. Providing a safe space for young LGBTQ + identified individuals and their allies to be creative, create community, and be themselves. Every month various group activities and events are held in this space that the young people create themselves! 


Make sure to follow @DaSpotNextDoor on Instagram for the latest on what is going on! You can also ask to sign up to our mailing list and receive our monthly calendar! 

Da Spot Next Door is also home to Destination Tomorrow’s Peer Vanguard Program

The Peer Vanguard Program “PVP “provides participants with opportunities to develop and practice leadership and social action skills by providing a forum where community members can learn about and discuss biases. discrimination issues, and pertinent topics that are community centered and informed. Once accepted to the program peers undergo Destination Tomorrrow’s own homegrown peer-leadership training process covering themes like:


  • Basic Interpersonal Communication Skills
  • Basic Knowledge on LGBTQ His/Herstorical Movements and Destination Tomorrow 
  • Conflict Resolution Skills 
  • HIV/AIDS 101 
  • Community Outreach and Engagement 
  • Computer and Office Tools 
  • The Importance of Community Service/Civic Engagement 

The Peer vanguards serve positive peer influence whose aim is to promote healthy, supportive, and respectful educational environments, develop social responsibility, critical thinking, and problem-solving abilities through opportunities for real-life applications in their community/participant recruitment, retention, and education.
