The 2023-24 Program Year is about to begin! HiTOPS Groups offers a safe space for LGBTQ+ youth and their caregivers to meet, socialize, offer support, and participate in educational activities. We offer four distinct weekly support groups of varying ages and identities: TConnect, First & Third, Banner (Middle School), and TransParenthood (Caregivers). Groups start the week of September 12th. TransParenthood is the only group that meets virtually only. All other groups meet in person at HiTOPS with a virtual option.
TConnect: Tuesdays, 5pm – 6pm
A social support group for trans, nonbinary, genderfluid, and gender expansive teens 14-18 years who want a place to meet up and talk to other teens navigating their gender identity and expression.
First & Third: Wednesdays, 5pm – 6pm
A social support group where LGBTQ+ teens 14-18 years old can make friends, participate in fun activities, and get advice from peers about navigating high school as a queer teen.
Banner: Thursdays – 5pm – 6pm
