Facilitated by Director of community outreach Ida Barrett and the committee, the LGBTQ+ youth group allows Athens-area youth to find community and forge friendships with people like them! From games to food, this is a relaxed space designed to offer a hangout for our kids. Held the fourth Thursday of each month, please email Ida@AthensPride.com for more information regarding location, time, and other details! See you soon.

In partnership with APQC, PFLAG Athens Area hosts a monthly discussion circle for parents/allies of LGBTQIA2S+ individuals to come together, discuss their thoughts, and find community and support with one another. We are building a more inclusive world for our family and friends. All are welcome. Email pflagathensarea@gmail.com for more information regarding location, meeting times, and details!

This group is for any who have known the pain of judgement or exclusion in a religious community because of their sexuality and are seeking to reconcile their God-given identity with practicing faith in community. We will explore, unpack, grieve, heal, and flourish together. Facilitated by The Reverend Laura Patterson. Contact rainbowspiritathens@gmail for meeting information.

We are lucky to have support groups here in Athens and with the help of APQC who are holding space for a Trans siblings. For more information on Trans support groups, please email admin@accesspoint.com. We are so grateful to our friends at Access Point for holding this space for our communities.
