OutCasting is a public radio program for LGBTQ youth. Launched in October 2011, OutCasting was originally broadcast on WDFH 90.3 FM in Ossining, New York.[1] After WDFH went off the air and replaced with WQXW (which is a repeater of Classical Station WQXR-FM), production of OutCasting was transferred to Media for the Public Good, Inc.[2] OutCasting is distributed throughout the United States by the Pacifica Radio Network.[3]

OutCasting takes a look at LGBTQ issues through the eyes of young LGBTQ people and their allies.
