Our group for professionals is intended to be a safe space for those looking to better support their LGBTQIA+ clients, or providers who are LGTBQIA+ themselves.

We recognize that while there are numerous work groups, cohorts, boards, and other groups in the community designed to find solutions and get things done, there is a lack of resources to support the individuals doing this important work behind the scenes. Our LGBTQIA+ support group for professionals is intended as a space to not only ask questions of Out of the Rain and other professionals in our area, but also to build a sense of community, support, and wellness among the social workers and other helpers who are doing the often-underappreciated job of standing up for the needs of LGBTQIA+ members of our community.

Meetings are held on the second Wednesday of the month, from 5:45 to 7 PM. You can join us in-person or remotely via video call.

We are located in the Compass Building in downtown Coos Bay (the opposite corner from the Dollar Tree). Our address is 455 S 4th St, Suite 5, Coos Bay, OR 97420.
