Becoming over Believing
Statement on Inclusion:
We welcome all persons and families, including LGBTQIA+ individuals, to participate at all levels of our community: serving as volunteers, holding staff and leadership roles, and we aspire to offer full care and support to all in our community without regard for ability, age, race, sex, gender identity, or sexual orientation.
Open Circle is an open and affirming community.
