Rainbow Connection
A monthly support group for queer and gender expansive teens and preteens, aged 10-17
Y’all, it is a rough time being a queer kid in Texas.
Yes, we know we are preaching to the choir. AND, that’s what makes Rainbow Connection, our support group for queer and gender expansive teens and preteens, so necessary. Your child deserves to feel safe, supported, and celebrated. They also deserve to meet other kids like them, so that they know what a wonder they are, and that they are nowhere close to being alone.
What to Expect in Group
Expect a variety of activities, topics, and also fun! Most of the kids that attend group are also neurodivergent, so we know that they needs hands on and interactive content to engage with. There is no pressure to participate, the primary goal is to be in a space with other kids like them, and to connect.
