What Are Your Roots?: Lineage Repair Work for Q***r and Trans People Of Color (QTPOC)

Who’s this 8-week series for?: This is an affinity learning space for Q***r and Trans People of Color in the Bay Area.

So many BIPOC folks today are the first out q***r or trans people in their families and if not are likely breaking previously held expectations around gender, relationship patterns, and community building ~ all of which is critical to our health, wellness, and even survival at this challenging time in America and on our planet.

believes that this groundbreaking, lineage-shifting work is being guided by our ancestors (bio and chosen including q***r ancestors). The work we are doing together helps us to better understand our connection patterns, heal childhood wounds, and build stronger intentional and romantic relationships in the community beyond nuclear monogamy.

These workshops will help people connect their intuitive decisions to ancestral patterns and connect energetically to the wisdom in their lineage. We begin in the present, explore the past, and then create new possibilities for our individual and collective futures.

Where: 1900 Sixth St., Berkeley, CA
When: Mondays | 5:00 PM-6:30PM
August 11, 2025 - October 6
excluding Labor Day, September 1

“It’s proven to be a fairly busy “week off,” lol, but at least I got to see Council Member Igor Tregub, Mayor Ishii, and Supervisor Nikki Fortunato-Bas—which is always a joy. And the measure W townhall on Tuesday felt very productive and empowering for folx.”

🌈 TODAY is the LAST DAY to make your Promise to Pacific Center! 🏳️‍🌈💖

If you’re just hearing about the campaign—here’s the deal:

Our Promise Campaign is all about keeping LGBTQIA+ and QTBIPOC mental health services alive and thriving in Berkeley and beyond. Right now, our community is facing serious threats, from harmful policies to massive funding cuts. We're anticipating a $50K shortfall next year due to state-level budget slashes. That puts our vital programs at risk.

But we’re not backing down. 💪 For 50+ years, we’ve stood strong as Berkeley’s only LGBTQIA+ community center. Offering radical care, cultural work, and mental health support.

We promise to continue showing up with love, resistance, and life-affirming care for our people and we need you with us.

🔥 We need to raise $55K by June 30, and the amazing news? Every donation is matched dollar for dollar up to another $55K! That means your gift goes twice as far. Help us unlock $110K before the end of Pride Month! 🏳️‍⚧️🌈

🎁 Donate today: https://givebutter.com/Promise2025
📢 Share with your community.
❤️ Help us protect what we’ve built—together.
