Cassie Blume’s nearly 12-year career of serving LGBTQ youth in Santa Clara County began in October 2006 when she started overseeing the DeFrank Youth Program. Two years later, under the auspices of Family & Children Services, she oversaw the creation of the LGBTQ Youth Space and built it into a thriving center that provides critical resources and support services for our community’s youth, their families and their schools.
