4 pm - 5 pm JOURNEYS: A support group to explore gender identity.  (3/17, 3/24, 3/31 and 4/7)

Join us for a series of support group sessions that provide a safe place for youth to ask questions and share experiences and struggles with gender identity.  If you identify as trans, non-binary, gender fluid, or still figuring it all out, this may be the group for you!  The group is led by counselors who identify across the gender identity spectrum and is open to high school-aged individuals 14-17 years old.  We meet Fridays at 4 pm at the Center beginning on March 17. The program runs for 4 weeks.  If you have any more questions, please email counseling@lgbtcenterofreading.com.
