Support group: 4th Monday
About the event
This meeting is currently only in-person! It is intended to be a hybrid meeting where attendees can attend in person or on Zoom, but we are still ironing out the exact details of how that will work.
This is a free, confidential support group for LGBTQ+ identified persons, as well as family, friends, and allies of LGBTQ+ people.
WHAT TO EXPECT:
We gather at 6:45 pm. We starts at 7:00 pm. The support group ends at around 8:30 pm.
Attendees participate in a sharing circle where people discuss issues, ask questions, offer personal experience, suggest advice and solutions, etc. Attendees have different journeys and experiences, which makes for a large fount of useful and beneficial information, tips, and advice. You may participate in the discussion, or just observe, whatever you feel comfortable doing.
Every meeting is different and you will probably find the discussion interesting. You will feel a sense of being connected to others as they share and discuss issues. The discussion is moderated by a facilitator to ensure fairness and to meet the needs of all the attendees. Topics vary by month and by meeting depending upon the needs of those who attend. New attendees almost universally feel very glad that they attended our support groups.
ABOUT PFLAG AUSTIN: we are a chapter of a national non-profit organization that provides free, confidential support groups for Austin, Texas area LGBTQ persons, along with their family and friends.
