Description
Coming Out Being Out (COBO) is a peer discussion group that has served the LGBT community for over 15 years in downtown Toronto. We meet to share stories and opinions, challenges and triumphs at all stages of coming out and being out.
COBO participants are lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, two-spirit and questioning people. We welcome all who identify under the banner of queer sexual orientation and gender identity.
What We Do
\|-\| COBO participants are often seeking to:
• Understand what experiences others have in coming out to family, friends and their respective communities. • Develop comfort in discussing their identity with others. • Meet others having the same experiences when it comes to living openly. • Receive the encouragement of peers.
\|-\| Regular topics of discussion include:
• How people choose to come out (at work, with family, with friends). • Where to find others like us in the community. • Challenges and triumphs in navigating family and partner relationships.
Where & When
• Every Wednesday from 6-8pm • Community meeting space at Casey House - 119 Isabella St., Toronto
