Black Family Circle
Black Family Circle
Black Family Circle is dedicated to families and individuals who identify as Black and have LGBTQ+ loved ones. It's a warm and inviting space to gather virtually and find community.
The group provides family-to-family support with a focus on the intersection of accepting an LGBTQ+ child and one’s experience as a member of the Black community. While the experiences of being Black in America vary tremendously, there are shared cultural factors that play a role in supporting a family’s well-being, resiliency, and understanding when a loved one comes out as LGBTQ+. Come into the Circle with us!
This group meets online on the fourth Sunday of every month from 2:00–3:30 p.m. ET.
