[[OUTDATED INFORMATION AS OF 26th of SEPTEMBER 2014]]

Hey!!! Just an update on the group!! Since I am not in Jacksonville, there will be a hiatus until Wednesday September 3rd. However, I will be updating the group page during the summer.

This group also has full support by the UNF's LGBT Resource Center!!

Something I posted on another source:

  • So far! This group has had about a steady stream of 5-10 people every other week from February to April. Unfortunately, due to my not being there there is a hiatus on the group meets until, at latest, Wednesday September 3rd.

    I really want more people to come to the meetings for more recognition and hopefully more outreach can happen! I would also like more people to like the Facebook page. I will update it frequently.

Additionally! I have made a private group for the discussion group. You may contact Justin Savage (me) on facebook to be invited to the group.

Jacksonville is the city in which I "came out" as an Ace a few months ago. I'll be there again in late November so I might be at that meeting.

It is great that these groups exist. I just wish there was something in the DC area also.

Awesome, Blace! I hope to see you there :D

Also! I have talked to the heads of the LGBT Resource Center and moved it from a Dicussion Group, to a Support Group exlusively.
