The Film: A Place Where I Belong
Join us on April 9, 2026 at 7 PM for a special screening of A Place Where I Belong that includes a drag performance from Nixon and panel discussion.
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?
Following the screening and drag performance, we’re hosting a panel discussion with the filmmaker and folks featured in the film:
– Rheanna Toy
– John Woods
– Alison Klein
– Lyle Lexier
– Moderator: Robert Kuang
A Place Where I Belong is closed captioned and there will be an ASL interpreter present.
