Looking for a specific type of group?

Let us know...

We're only as strong as the bricks that create us.  Meaning, if there's a social group need that isn't listed here, let us know.  


Are you LGBTQ going through recovery?  Is there a LGBTQ Recovery Group in existence?  Want to start one?


Are you LGBTQ and into organized sports?  Do you know of an LGBTQ Sports group already in existence locally?  Interested in starting one?


Are you Transgender and need to converse with others who share experiences in a safe space?  Want to start a group online?


The Jackson Pride Center encourages our community to express themselves freely, and in groups of like-minded people.  We need your help in listing locations and times of such groups.  If you don't see it, let us know.  We can assist in getting you started.

Working together, having fun, meeting others

There's plenty of opportunities to join others and strategize, build and polish joint ventures, such a parade floats, signs, or even setup and staff our festivals and events.

LGBTQ CommUnity Visibility

On June 28, 2019 at dusk, members of Jackson's LGBTQ met in front of the Carnegie Branch of Jackson District Library to honor the 50th Anniversary of the Stonewall Riots, a pinnacle moment in LGBTQ equality.

SOCIAL GROUPS

We strive to link people together with common needs and concerns, so that they can bond together and build a stronger community from within.  All Meetup groups have been suspended until further notice, as we're working on connecting community together virtually.
