Annual Showcase & Fundraiser
Join us to raise funds for Georgia’s only youth legal aid organization, with performances, the 2nd Annual Georgia Youth Justice Awards, auction, buffet, and inspiring speeches from local leaders.
This year’s SLCY Showcase & Fundraiser is more than a celebration; it’s an investment in the systems young people are building to survive, thrive, and lead. From gender-affirming legal care to peer-led health advocacy, the work we do is rooted in resistance and powered by community.
Experience performances, storytelling, and art from youth and community members who are transforming the South, one policy, one name change, and one person at a time. We will also be presenting the 2nd Annual Georgia Youth Justice Awards. Admission includes dinner, auction and raffle items, performances, and messages from local leaders, including GA Representative Sam Park, Esq. and Miracle Rankin, Esq..
Proceeds support our legal, community health, and youth leadership projects, including: our Youth Homelessness Legal Program, the Southern Kiki Leaders Collective, Gender-Affirming Legal Care™ for Youth, and Shelter Rights Project. We are the first and only legal aid organization in Georgia and the South that focuses on young people aged 12-24, especially those who are experiencing housing instability.
