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 wit h 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? The post -screening panel will center lived expertise\, offering firsthand insight into disability\, 2SLGBTQIA+ inclusion\, and the real-world impact of affi rming community spaces. This conversation invites students\, faculty\, sta ff\, and community members from all disciplines — including education\, ps ychology\, social work\, medicine\, and beyond — to reflect on how inclusi ve practice can be strengthened across professional and community settings . 🎥 More info on film and trailer here: https://aplacewhereibelong.com/Thi s event will run on Tuesday February 17\, 5:30-8:30\, at the 91˿Ƶ Facult y of Education (3700 McTavish) Leaning commons (main floor through Peel St reet entrance).
