New Program: Queerios Discussion Group

Centering Queer & Religious/Spiritual Intersections

A collaboration with The Gathering Space for Spiritual Well-Being, Queerios is a discussion-based group open to all that focuses on the experience of being both queer and religious or spiritual.  Queerios welcomes participation of all kinds and disclosure of any identity is never required to join. This group is not focused on any particular faith-based practice or queer identity but rather a general approach to this unique intersection. Sessions will feature topics that highlight a variety of identities and practices present in the UMBC student body.

Sessions will start with a student facilitator-led activity, and leave plenty of room for discussion, dialogue, and community building. Each week will focus on a different topic! Allies and community members who want to learn how to better support those living at this intersection are welcome to participate.

Please stay tuned for more details!
