For three month( Mar, Apr, May 2016) we counseled 27 LGBTQ youths and their 43 cases. And we support 6LGBTQ youths in crisis providing food, daily necessities, medical services, counsellings and so on.
And we hosted DDingDong Lunch(Totobob) twice a month. 40 LGBTQ Youth visited Totobop and had lunch together.
And we started DDingDing's own oureach programm we called it DDingDong Pocha(Korean Style Bar). We didn't sell anything but share for free like snacks, daily necessities and so on but no alchols. Last year we participated other organization's outreach program(Moving Youth Center EXIT). In that experience we have learned a lot about what outreach is. Then from last winter we prepared our own program. We visited some places as known as streets who are most visited by LGBT Youth and we searched and gathered information. Then we launched first outreach program on first Saturday night of April. Location is Chingusai office (Korea Gay Human Rights Group) in Jongno it's famous gay scene in Korea. 7th June now we held it three times
We stated #PRIDE_ON campaign, too. This year we have budget which is for outreach programm once a month but if we succeed this fundrasing campaign we can host DDingDong Pocha twice a month like DDingDong Lunch.
And DDingDong voluteers traing programm was finished and 10 volunteers started to help DDingDong Lunch and DDingDong Pocha and other programms.
