Our support group focuses on challenges and feelings associated with coming out as lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgender (LGBT) and the way it touches relationships with families, friends and our larger communities. We understand that we are all here to better understand our own feelings about sexual orientation and gender identity and to support each other as we learn to embrace our own sexual orientation or gender identity, or that of our loved ones.
We provide support by listening carefully, sharing our own stories, and discussing our own problem-solving experiences. We are sensitive to each person’s stage in the acceptance process. We each speak from our own experiences, and respect the experiences of others.
Confidentiality is a top priority. Nothing said in the room is to leave the room, nor will people be pressed to share more information than they are comfortable with here or after the meeting. We are supportive rather than confrontational. Anyone who is uncomfortable may make this known to the facilitator. Everyone will be given the chance to speak. To ensure that this can happen, each person is asked to be conscious of the amount of time they are using in order to leave adequate time so that others may also speak.
