Community Resources

A free-form Zoom support group for LGBTQ+ adults (18+) who want community and a place to talk through the everyday demands of life in Brooklyn.

It's free and open to anyone struggling with substance use or other addictive behaviors, and you don't need to register to drop in.

Community Focused

Monday night pickup basketball for LGBTQ+ players and allies of all skill levels at the Brooklyn Community Pride Center. No tryouts, no drama — just show up ready to play, get a workout in, and connect with community on the court. All skill levels welcome; just bring sneakers and energy.

It's the kind of class where you build real skills and confidence while feeling like part of a community.
