Description

 

This group is meeting virtually during shelter-in-place, as part of our Coronavirus response.
Please register in advance to receive phone and video conference access information.


This month, OFC will be hosting a series of Family Pride Events and stand All In This Together with SF Pride. This event is geared towards celebrating, uplifting, and recognizing not only trans, nonbinary, GNC, 2Spirit parents and caregivers, but social advocates and queer icons as well! This will be a family-friendly space rooted in the Bay Area to discuss how you as a Trans*/GNC/2S parent or prospective parent perceive Pride, and what is the best way to introduce and talk to your children about how San Francisco Pride started. SF Family Programs Coordinator, Karlon Zee (he/him) self-identifies as a queer and trans person of color, and will be hosting this safe, inclusive space. Take advantage of this opportunity! Drop by virtually to hear about trans-affirming social supports and clinical health services, as well as meeting new and familiar faces through facilitated discussions around queerness, pride, resilience, and liberation - We're All In This Together! To receive the Zoom link, please RSVP. 

Make the best of it with us, splash together your favorite mocktail or cocktail and share with us what's in your cup to toast to queer liberation! If you need some ideas on some great mocktails - we've got you covered! 

20 of the best summer mocktails

Share your story

We’re looking for stories by or about LGBTQ+ parents/caregivers or prospective parents, as well as the grandparents or adult children of LGBTQ+ headed families.

Generally, we hope your story will not only inform other families on LGBTQ+ family topics, but also let others know that they are not alone in the journey of advocating for our families.

Whether you feel like you’ve arrived, or your story is not yet complete, know that we can keep one another company all along the way. And it always helps to feel a little less alone.

  • How is your family structured?
  • What is your family formation story?
  • Have you faced challenges in forming your family or parenting because of your identity?
  • How were you able to navigate these challenges?
  • What has been the impact on you/your spouse/children?
  • What systems/people helped guide you?
  • What advice would you have for other LGBTQ-headed families – or perhaps just your younger self?
  • How have you or your family dealt with challenges at schools, medical providers, or elsewhere?
  • Were there times when you expected resistance and instead were welcomed?
  • Do you have opinions you’d like to share about current events, or perhaps movies, TV shows, music, or more?
  • Do you have a story about how Our Family Coalition has had an impact on your or your family that you’d like to share?
