For more information, contact Jeannette at jnetperez@gmail.com.
Also, Check out "The Coming Out Group". Mondays from 5-6:30pm at the Women's Center. A place to meet and gain support while discussing your sexual and/or gender identities in a confidential setting. The group is open in new members for the first 3 week then closes to maintain safe space. For more info. contact Cat Thompson at cathompson@ucsd.edu.
