Intersectional Identity & Trauma Support Group

  • Fabulous Arts Foundation 925 North Lime Avenue Sarasota, FL, 34237 United States (map)

This support group addresses the cumulative impact of HIV-related stigma alongside other forms of discrimination (such as race, sexual orientation, and socioeconomic status). The intervention promotes healing through culturally responsive, identity-affirming care.\

What to Expect: A deeply validating space where multiple identities are seen and

integrated. It offers a balance of processing and skill-building in a trauma-informed

environment where safety and pacing are prioritized.

Intended Outcomes: Reduced trauma-related distress, increased identity integration,

and improved psychological well-being for individuals with multiple marginalized

identities.

Capacity: Limited to 6–8 participants max to ensure privacy, safety, and depth.

Timeline & Format:

Schedule: Meets once a month on the last Thursday of the month.

Group Begins: Thursday, September 24, 2026, at 6:00 PM

Format: 1 hour per session (closed group format).
