Open GBTQ+ Men's Group

The Open GBTQ+ Men's Group is a free, confidential, in-person peer group for gay, bisexual, trans, queer, and questioning (GBTQ+) men in the Raleigh area. It meets on the 1st and 3rd Thursdays of each month from 7 to 9 PM in Durham, a few minutes from I-40 and Fayetteville Road.

The group is meant as a safe space where men can speak honestly about their lives and how they present themselves to the world, without being judged. Members share struggles and joys, and are encouraged to connect with men who have similar life experiences as well as men who see things differently. The aim is for each man to become the best version of himself. It is led by GBTQ+ peers from The ManKind Project (MKP), a 40-year-old global, non-religious, non-political, inclusive non-profit community of men. More information is at MKP.org.

Registration is encouraged but not required. The organizers ask men to spend one minute registering, once only, to help with safety, enjoyment, and communication: https://bk271.infusionsoft.app/app/form/raleigh-gbtq-omg. The address is not published. After registering, you receive a confirmation email, and Bob or a fellow organizer phones you to answer questions and give you the location. Men who prefer not to register can click to attend the group on Meetup, and the organizers will send the address there.
