Groups Identity House tries to provide whatever groups may be needed in the LGBTQ community. Theme-centered groups (e.g., Coming-Out groups, Relationship groups, Married men's/women's groups, and Creating Your Own Gay Life groups) are offered at various times during the year. Open groups are led by Identity House peer facilitators. Groups typically meet weekly for eight weeks, and the suggested contribution for each session is $25. The location is typically in the Village or Midtown. Each session lasts two hours. Listed below are the groups that are about to start or have already started. If the group you are interested in has already started, you may still be able to join if the group has just begun. Even if you are unable to join, either because the group is well underway or because it is filled to capacity (we usually cap groups at 10 people), you are still encouraged to contact us so that we can let you know the next time that group will be starting. If you don't see a group you'd like to join, let us know, and we'll try to get a group going on a topic of your choice.
