LGBTQ+ Disability Community Engagement Group Roundtable

June 27 @ 10:00 am - 5:00 pm PDT

Welcome to Out & Equal’s second LGBTQ+ in Disability Community Engagement Group Roundtable of 2025. CEGs offer year-round opportunities for intersectional identity groups to connect, share stories, and discuss their unique challenges and shared experiences.
The LGBTQ+ Disability Community Engagement Group will be hosted by Fiona Dawson (she/her) from Free Lion Productions and NGLCC’s Austin Chamber, and Carson Tueller (he/him), coach, speaker and activist.
In the United States, it has only been about 30 years since the passage of the American with Disabilities Act. And while progress has been made in that time for the broader community, LGBTQ+ individuals with disabilities still continue to face unique challenges in the workplace: exclusion due to inaccessibility, navigating bias and stigma, and finding true acceptance in both the LGBTQ+ and disability communities.
It’s why safe spaces, like Out & Equal’s LGBTQ+ Disability CEG, where individuals of like-identities can connect, share stories, and open up about their unique challenges and experiences are critically important. Through these vital support networks, which are centered on community and open dialogue, individuals can find understanding, and they can feel seen and validated. They can tap into and build the strength that lies within to show up authentically at work, advocate for themselves and others, and thrive.
This CEG is available for O&E partner contacts and companies and community and non-profit organizations. You must self-ID with the group.
