Calling all parents and caregivers of Le***an, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender and Q***r youth!

Are you seeking social support and community from other caregivers of LGBTQ+ youth who share your experiences? Looking for a space to talk about your experiences with a newly out LGBTQ+ child or teen? Wanting guidance on how to navigate a new understanding of your child’s LGBTQ+ identity?

Then Parent Support Alliance is the group for you!

Parent Support Alliance (PSA) is a free, monthly support group for parents and caregivers of LGBTQIA+ youth. This discussion group invites parents & caregivers to engage in open conversation with their peers, sharing challenges, emotional support, and advice with each other. There will also be time for participants to freely socialize and connect with each other without direct facilitation. Workshops are included as part of the P.S.A.’s programming twice a year.

Our next session will be this Monday, July 7th at the LGBTQ Center Long Beach from 6:30PM to 8PM! Free parking available behind the Center with front desk validation.

Snacks and refreshments will be provided!

We hope to see y’all there!
