Affinity Groups
We recognize the profound value of affinity groups in fostering a sense of belonging and community among individuals who share common identities, interests, or experiences.
Why join an affinity group?
-
Support & Belonging – Connect with others who share similar identities or lived experiences. Getting together as an identity group for brave sharing can make it easier to navigate the larger village.
-
Networking & Growth – Gain mentorship, make friends, learn about yourself, and maybe even get career opportunities.
-
Advocacy & Change – Work together to create a more inclusive and equitable environment. Please read carefully whether allies are welcome. In most affinity spaces based on identity, these are for only folks who carry that identity.
-
Education & Awareness – Learn from different perspectives and experiences.
