COLAGE provides forums, gatherings, and targeted programming for youth who have one or more LGBTQ+ parents with our largest annual program being Family Week. Family Week is a partnership with Family Equality to provide programming for over 500 families and their children for one week in Provincetown, MA. In 2023 , the event was held from July 23rd-28th. For COLAGE, the program serves as an incubator space to build and develop programs that are then brought to other local communities around the U.S. both virtually and in person. Additionally, for the first time, COLAGE held Atlanta Family Weekend, the first in what we hope will be regional LGBTQ+ family events we host throughout the country.COLAGE conducts educational programming to support people who have one or more LGBTQ+ parents.
