District 202 began as a non-profit lesbian and gay youth coffee house in 1992 supported by a start-up grant from the Minneapolis Community Foundation. Over the years it evolved into a thriving LGBTQ | Queer youth community center. District 202's first hire was Michael Kaplan in 1992, who served as the center's first executive director until June 1998.[1]

District 202's first home was located at 2524 Nicollet Ave in Minneapolis and included a library, coffee house, art space, and dance space.[2] The drop-in center was open Monday and Wednesdays 3pm to 11pm, Thursdays and Fridays 3pm to 1am and Saturday 12pm to 1am.

In 1997, District 202 moved from its original space to a newly renovated 7,000 square foot warehouse space at 1601 Nicollet Ave. S in Minneapolis. The space included DJ booth, dance floor, espresso bar, and organizing space. In 1997, District 202 received 12,000 visits by 2,000 kids.[3]

In July 2009 District 202 closed the drop-in center[4] and is now focusing on providing programming at places like churches, community centers, and online.[5] The organization became a part of The Family Partnership's GLBT-Kids: Abuse Intervention Program[6] on March 20, 2012.[7]
