What the LGBTQIA+ community is saying about the LoveYourBrain Mindset program
“I previously participated in a LoveYourBrain Mindset program and found it incredibly helpful. Participating in this second program, specifically within a queer affinity group, felt especially meaningful to me. The shared experiences, vulnerability, and sense of ease among both participants and facilitators deepened the impact of the program in a powerful way. We shared so many supportive and heartfelt moments, and I am deeply grateful for the experience.”
— LGBTQIA+ Mindset Program Participant
“I really loved being part of the LGBTQ+ affinity group! Being able to connect with people who shared my lived experience and understood my identity was especially beautiful. I am so glad that I found this community! Connecting with other people gave me a sense of community that I didn't know I was missing!”
