SOGI Tweens Group
SOGI Tweens Groups
The SOGI (Sexual Orientation & Gender Identity) Tweens Group is a support group for parents/caregivers and supportive friends or family members of LGBTQIA+ young people entering/in early adolescence (ages 9-15, with some flexibility).
There are so many concerns, challenges, and discoveries occurring around early adolescence for Queer and TGNC young people (and those who love them!), including identity, sexuality, body image, gender-affirming care, names and pronouns, and navigating family, school, and peer relationships. Join our community to meet understanding friends, share information and resources, and get support as we strive to show up and advocate for our kiddos to be their most authentic selves.
This group meets online on the first Wednesday of each month from 7:00–8:30 p.m. ET.
*This group will be facilitated in English but one of our regular facilitators is also fluent in Spanish. Note that this group arose from within the TransFamilies Project (TFP) group and families are welcome to join/attend both; SOGI Tweens offers an inclusive, age-group-specific space for families of youth who identify anywhere within the rainbow spectrum.
Due to holiday scheduling please note that SOGI Tweens will not meet on 1/1/25.
In order to keep a safe and confidential meeting space, you must register to attend PFLAG NYC meetings online. The link to join the meeting on Zoom will be provided to everyone who registers in advance.
