(Virtual) A GATHERING PLACE FOR LGBTQ POC FAMILIES & POC ALLIES

This is a people of color affinity group for People Of Color who are parents, family or friends of LGBTQ+ individuals. We are parents, friends and allies, - of those who identify as part of the LGBTQ community. We are a support group for individuals of all sexual orientations and gender identities which focuses on current event topics effecting LGBTQ and people of color.

The 2nd Friday of each month from 6pm-7:30pm.

DISCLAIMER: Affinity groups at the center reserve the right to prioritize the needs of the group that they and we have identified as underserved. It stands to reason that someone might mistakenly walk into an affinity space they do not identify with - without knowledge of the affinity affiliation. The Center cannot possibly prevent any occurrence of this unfortunate instance happening - even with great promotion - we cannot control the possibility of the occasional word of mouth misperception. We therefore have agreed as a community to respect the boundaries set by these affinity collective care circles and ask that anyone finding themselves in an instance of mistakenly entering an affinity circle that they do not identify with to please exit without taxing the collective or its facilitators to be traumatized by having to explain or defend the right to healthy boundaries set by the group.
Please see our center website calendar for updates.
