Apply to be a lead Join a q'mmunity
Support and empower yourself and others. Build community and collective resources. Let’s get together for Q’mmunity Q’nnections—social drop-in spaces for students with similar identities.
Drop-ins are peer-led and peer-facilitated, with an identity and community centered in each. Student facilitators have training and lived experience with the identities in spaces they lead, and Spectrum Center programs are open to all U-M students to participate respectfully.
Join us as a group leader
Being a Q'mmunity Lead is a paid opportunity for students where you will be able to gain leadership and facilitation skills, as well as informally mentor. You'll also have access to a queer professional staff team and gain support from your fellow peer facilitators.
Responsibilities include
- setting up consistent biweekly meeting times for the group in fall and winter semesters
- creating social activities for the group (game night, making slime, etc.) and facilitating them, along with conversations that may come up in the space
- communicating to the group about upcoming plans
