Encircle has officially opened its new LGBTQ+ youth and family resource center in Ogden, marking the organization’s fifth location in Utah. The nonprofit provides safe, welcoming spaces for LGBTQ+ youth and their families through support groups, mental health services, creative programs, and community events.

The new purpose-built facility includes therapy services, family gathering spaces, and peer-led programs designed to foster connection, acceptance, and emotional well-being. After years of fundraising and construction challenges, community partnerships and local supporters helped bring the Ogden home to life. Leaders say the center will serve as a critical resource for LGBTQ+ youth seeking support, belonging, and affirming care in Northern Utah.
