What does queer mean to you? What about Pride? As we begin 2024, let’s gather to discuss how LGBT+ identities intersect with our work, lives, spirituality, and politics. These conversations are not easy and are often uncomfortable but engaging in them allows us to grow and learn to become better informed and/or better allies. Bring your questions and thoughts and come ready to discuss and listen.

If any of this intrigues you, please join us for the next LGBT+ Affinity Group discussion. We love deep conversation in a mutually respectful space among intellectual professionals. Expect to smile and laugh as we engage with thought provoking conversations. Let’s grow as go!
