LGBTQIA
Mon. 10/6 | 7-9p | LGBT RC

LGBTQIA is committed to providing safe spaces for the community and work toward this goal in many ways: holding regular meetings to provide a space to talk and socialize; putting on social dances open to all, allowing people to have a good time without fear; holding rallies to show our pride; promoting education, both within the LGBTIQ community and to the larger San Diego community.

For more information, please e-mail us at lgbtqia@gmail.com.

Fluid Attraction Group
Tues. 10/7 | 5-6p | LGBT RC

This group is an open dialogue and supportive space for those who identify with bisexual, fluid, pansexual, queer and questioning experiences. We welcome you to attend, listen, participate, and connect with others as we explore fluid sexualities and/or fluid romantic attractions. This is a community space where confidentiality will be respected.

For more information, please e-mail us at ucsdfluidgroup@gmail.com.

Men's Group 
Weds. 10/8 | 7-9p | LGBT RC

Men's Group is a space for male-bodied and/ or male-identified members of the UCSD community to discuss what it means to be bisexual, gay, transgender, queer, straight,  or questioning within the context of UCSD and beyond. The setting is personal and confidentiality is a prime objective. Thus, a safe discussion space is created for discussing these issues with trained and friendly facilitators.
