Summaries

Summary Sentence: Rising Up is a new group for students who would like to develop resilience skills in order to improve the mental health and acquire tools to help them overcome challenges.

Full Summary: Rising Up is a new group for undergraduate and graduate students that meets every week for one semester in the LGBTQIA Resource Center. The group will be based on The Queer and Transgender Resilience Workbook by Dr. Anneliese Singh, a practical and compassionate guide to cultivating skills that build resilience. Each group will have no more than 10 students, and each student will receive a free copy of the workbook to work through over the course of the semester.

Participants are expected to commit to the weekly meetings throughout the semester in order to gain the most from the experience and to complete all of the readings in the book. If you don't feel you can commit this semester, please check back for spring 2019 sign-up later. Spots are limited in the group in order to foster a comfortable environment where all members can participate; please do not sign up if you don't intend to participate regularly because it will disrupt group cohesion and prevent others from attending in your place.

Please sign up on the LGBTQIA Resource Center website.
