Coming Out, Being Out - Peer Discussion (Weekly)
**Description**
Coming Out Being Out (COBO) is a peer discussion group that has served the LGBT community for over 15 years in downtown Toronto. We meet to share stories and opinions, challenges and triumphs at all stages of coming out and being out.
COBO participants are lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, two-spirit and questioning people. We welcome all who identify under the banner of queer sexual orientation and gender identity.
**What We Do**
\|\-\| COBO participants are often seeking to:
* Understand what experiences others have in coming out to family, friends and their respective communities.
* Develop comfort in discussing their identity with others.
* Meet others having the same experiences when it comes to living openly.
* Receive the encouragement of peers.
\|\-\| Regular topics of discussion include:
* How people choose to come out (at work, with family, with friends).
* Where to find others like us in the community.
* Challenges and triumphs in navigating family and partner relationships.
**Where & When**
* Every Wednesday from 6-8pm
* Community meeting space at Casey House - 119 Isabella St., Toronto
**How to Access the Meeting**
Registration on Meetup is not required to attend. Attendance is on a drop-in basis. The front door to our meeting space at Casey House is controlled by the main floor receptionist. To access the space when you arrive:
* Press the button to the left of the main entrance door.
* Tell the receptionist that you are there for the COBO meeting.
* You will be buzzed in and someone from our group will come to show you to the meeting.
WE LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING YOU ON WEDNESDAY!

🐣🌷 Easter Sunday Brunch (Buffet) @ HOTHOUSE! 🌷🐣
# 🐣🌷 Easter Sunday Brunch (Buffet) @ HOTHOUSE! 🌷🐣
# If you know… you know.
This brunch sells out every single year — and for good reason. It is hands-down one of the BEST brunch buffets in Toronto (and honestly, the GTA). When people ask me where to go for a truly memorable brunch experience, I always say **HotHouse**.
The food is fresh.
The selection is generous.
The price point is fantastic for what you get.
And the desserts? Unreal. 🍰 If you love cake, this is your moment.
Add in a live jazz band, Easter energy, and a room full of great people — and you have what I truly believe is the **must-eat brunch of the season**.
This isn’t just brunch.
It’s an event.
***
## 🥂 Brunch Details
📍 **Location:** HotHouse Restaurant (35 Church St, Toronto)
🕐 **Meetup Time:** 12:45 PM (I’ll wait 5 minutes before we head in together!)
💲 **Buffet Cost:** $35 + tax + tip (paid directly to the restaurant)
🎶 Live Jazz Band
📜 **Menu:** 🐰 Click here to see what’s on the Easter buffet!
🐣 Please don’t call the restaurant — they won’t know about this private Meetup. Message Mathew directly with any questions.
