Lavender Teatime presents: Jump Into Jumanji!

What better way to spend a Sunday afternoon than eating snacks and playing Jumanji together in our Lavender Teatime group?

Snacks and the game will be provided. You're also welcome to bring your own snacks if you'd like!

As this is a free drop-in event, no registration or RSVP is required.

Please note that this event will be held at the new CommunityWise Resource Centre at the Deerfoot 17 building (2nd Floor - 2710 17 Ave SE). We will be meeting in the Main Common Room. When you arrive at the second floor, an Outlink facilitator or staff member will let you in. Please go through the main doors on the second floor and follow the signs to the Main Common Room!

We will be letting folks in until 2:30, so please arrive before then!

This event is part of our newly implemented Lavender Teatime structure where we host a monthly special event in addition to our two other regular monthly meetings!

Lavender Teatime is a community group for those whose identities are informed and understood in relation to experiences of queer womanhood, including trans, non binary, and cis folks as they feel comfortable in this space. Read more here.

Please note that this group is mostly attended by and is a space intended for adults. Older youth are welcome to attend if they feel comfortable, however we do offer youth-specific programming as well.

This meetup is intended as a space for casual connection. This is not a structured therapy group nor is it a dating space. If you are looking for further support, Outlink staff are available to meet with you one-on-one or in small groups by phone, text based messaging, or video call upon request. They can also help connect you to other counselling and support services.

Please note that this meeting is moderated by Outlink staff/volunteers who reserve the right to remove anyone from the group who is in violation of our Safer Space Ground Rules.

If you'd like to take any pictures of the room or the group, please ask facilitators and participants first.
