Join Front Porch Collective for Grieving Gays, a queer grief support group in collaboration with Queer Quarterly CNY (@queerquarterlyCNY on Instagram).

Queer grief is complex and often misunderstood. From safety in public to lost connections with family members, LGBTQIA+ folx experience loss in many ways and often aren’t provided the space to be held in their grief.

This drop-in, free support group will be offered every other month in-person in Syracuse, NY. There will never be a cost associated with attending this group. Located on the SY 10 line, this library is easily accessible by CENTRO bus transportation.
