A Place Where I Belong
Join us for a special screening of A Place Where I Belong that includes a drag performance from Nixon and panel discussion with the filmmaker, Rheanna Toy, and participants from the film: Alison Klein, Lyle Lexier, and John Woods, moderated by Robert Kuang.
A Place Where I Belong follows six 2SLGBTQIA+ individuals with intellectual and/or developmental disabilities as they navigate identity, love, and systemic barriers through an innovative non-profit program called Connecting Queer Communities (CQC). As the participants find safety and solidarity within CQC, their stories—ranging from self-advocacy and family rejection to the joy of coming out—highlight the urgent need for inclusive spaces.
But with CQC at risk of disappearing, the film asks: what happens to a community when the only safe place they’ve ever known might be taken away?
A Place Where I Belong is closed captioned and there will be an ASL interpreter present.
