What we’re about
This group serves all those in the San Joaquin County who practice or are curious about Consensual Non-Monogamy.
This is a community building and educational space, NOT a dating/hookup/play space. Connections happen naturally and often, but the main goal of all events is always to build community connections first and foremost.
All of our events are safe spaces and welcome to newbies, first-timers, questioners, intrinsic polys, those who've been "in it a while", and all levels of experience or lack thereof. Being a safe space also mean all ages (over 18), orientations, genders, ethnicities, capabilities, religion, body sizes, neurodivergences... (did I miss any?) are welcome here.
The only thing not safe in our events is hate and misinformation. The recommendation is to not "hold on" to your hate or misinformation if called out on it.
Rules:
- Respect individual journeys and do not gatekeep.
- Do not DM members without asking in person (Admin Sarah's DMs are always OPEN)
- Celebrate No's as much as the Yes's

See all- Calling all Poly/CNM in SJC!!Round Table Pizza, 95219, CA
TL;DR: Are you practicing or curious about Consensual Non-Monogamy and live in the San Joaquin County area (CA, USA)? Come have a slice of pizza, meet others in the community, or check things out/ask questions!
This event is an informal meet and greet with opportunity to connect with others in the community. Consider it a restart/reboot of what was formerly known as "Stockton Area Polyamory." The main goal of this event is to jump start the local community and reconnect.
I will grab a couple of large pizzas for everyone and have available @ 4:15, otherwise event will be wide open between the hours of 4 and 6pm for you to come and go, or stay and hang out! I will have the private room set up with a few stations: Pizza, Information/Resources, Voting, Feedback, and Connection. You can rotate and check through each if you want, or skip some, or just stand by and ask me questions! Whatever feels good for you.
Please be mindful although I do have the private room, this is a public setting and one wall is see-through glass. There is some sound prevention.
I come back to hosting in the Stockton/San Joaquin area with new ideas, goals and drives! I want to serve and foster this community to the best of my ability. My driving goal is to create spaces members need in order to learn, grow, and be the best they can in all their relationships (including with themselves!)
I can not do any of what I want without feedback from you, or if I do not know you exist! You may not know what you need, and that is ok too! I come with ideas that you can voice support for (I offer a silent and anonymous option for everyone to do this at the voting station!) or use a spontaneous springboard for your own idea (feedback station!).
Goals of this event:
- Gather voices from the community
- Gather feedback / create connections
- Use feedback to establish a monthly community event
This and all subsequent events are also posted on: Facebook, Plura, Fetlife, and Eventbrite.
