The Center OC 1605 N Spurgeon St, Santa Ana, CA, United States

The Queer Youth Art Collective (QYAC) is a space where we encourage folks to boost their mental health while having fun and expressing themselves creatively. Engaging in creative pursuits can have a positive impact on mental well-being, and we want to provide an inclusive space for you to explore your artistic side. Join us for weekly in-person Tuesday meetings at the LGBTQ Center OC and delve into paints, collages, jewelry-making, and more!

Event Series Study with Pride (ages 13-18)

Study with Pride (ages 13-18)

Study With Pride is a tutoring group for LGBTQQIA+ youth. Youth are invited to stop by for homework help and tutoring on topics, such as math, science, and writing. Everyone is welcomed to also hang out, socialize and take a break from school! We also offer a discord server for youth to hang out, post memes, and ask for help with school work, for more information contact the facilitator. 

Event Series Cisn’t

Cisn’t (Ages 13-18)

The Center OC 1605 N Spurgeon St, Santa Ana, CA, United States

Cisn’t is a closed social space for transgender, intersex, non-binary, gender non-conforming, and questioning youth 13-18. The purpose of this group is to create a supportive and inclusive environment in which one’s gender may be freely expressed and respected. Given that the majority of transgender students feel unsafe in school, it is important to provide a safe and welcoming environment that caters to the direct needs of transgender youth. Two adult group facilitators offer discussion topics relating to the transgender community while leaving space for youth to connect with peers and participate in engaging activities and community events, such as Transgender Day of Visibility, OC Trans Pride, and Transgender Day of Remembrance.

The Parent's Processing Group is a therapeutic group where parents can work together on processing their thoughts, feelings, and experiences with their children coming out, being in the LGBTQ community, gain peer insight from other parents, and reflect on difficulties based on parenting a child in the community. This is a free and open group for any parents who are interested in joining

Tobacco Cessation Focus Group
