Just The Way You Are - Anonymous Online LGBTQ+ Safe Space

Join our online anonymous support group for LGBTQ+ members!
Our group meets monthly on Teams, providing a safe and confidential space for individuals to connect, share experiences, and receive support from others who understand.

During our sessions, cameras are off to maintain anonymity, and chats are open to ask questions and talk to each other. Please be mindful that microphones can be switched on for those who wish to verbally express themselves. This format ensures accessibility for those who may find typing challenging.

For an optimal experience in our online LGBTQ support group, we strongly suggest using headphones, as they can help enhance audio quality, prevent echo and background noise, and ensure that you can fully engage in the conversations without distractions and ensuring privacy and confidentiality.

We welcome individuals of all ages, sexualities, and genders to join us. Our group is a diverse and inclusive community where everyone's voice is valued and respected. Whether you are looking for a listening ear, seeking advice, or simply wanting to connect with like-minded individuals, we are here for you.

In our support group, we discuss a variety of topics related to LGBTQ+ experiences, including coming out, self-acceptance, healthy relationships, consent, navigating societal challenges, support in the area, and more. Each session is an opportunity to learn, grow, and build connections with others who share similar journeys.

Join us in creating a supportive and empowering space where you can be yourself without judgment. Together, we can lift each other up, celebrate our identities, and find strength in community.

At SARAC, we look forward to welcoming you to our online support group!
