Youth Services

DASPOTNEXTDOOR is Destination Tomorrow’s dedicated youth program serving queer and allied youth ages 13-24 in the Bronx. Rooted in community, creativity, and care, DASPOTNEXTDOOR offers a vibrant third space beyond school and home where young people can truly be themselves.

Through community-based workshops, peer-led programming, and affirming resources, we nurture leadership, self-expression, and resilience. We center and celebrate the full spectrum of identities and lived experiences, uplifting voices often pushed to the margins.

A cornerstone of our space is our celebration of Ballroom Culture through our iconic KiKi Lounges, where we honor legacy, movement, and the power of chosen family. DASPOTNEXTDOOR isn’t just a program. It’s a community, a refuge, and a launchpad for the next generation of change-makers.
