Increase adeptness with conversation skills in one-on-one and group settings. This is NOT your typical social skills group. This group meets monthly to engage in conversations around a wide variety of topics, including sex, sexuality, relationships, politics, work, and pop culture. We start with small talk (don’t worry, there are cheat sheets), and then practice trading information, active listening, and offering verbal support.
Meetings open with setting the Safe Space rules (set by group members to create room for open conversation without judgement), introductions (small talk), and this month’s topic introduction. There is an ice breaker activity, and a roundtable-style conversation.
Tentative list of monthly topics (subject to change based on group interests) may include:
Sexual Health
Consent
Gender Norms
Family / Origin
Media & Politics
Allyship to Marginalized Communities
Asexuality Spectrum
Public Education
Climate Change
Generational Trends
Culture Share
Music Genres
This is a anti-oppression space. Conversations that endorse violence, bigotry and other hate will not be permitted. This group is facilitated by a queer femmeby (feminine-presenting non-binary) neurodivergent Human Rights Activist and Sex Educator. Folk of all genders, all cultures, all abilities, and all sexualities are welcome to join!
