CAFÉ FOR LGBTQ KIDS OPENS FOR SECOND SEASON

Café Q, a meeting place for LGBTQ middle and high schoolers, reopens its doors Sunday, September 15th from 3:00 – 5:00 PM. Hosted by Congregation Beth Hatikvah, 36 Chatham Road in Summit, Café Q is a non-denominational haven where LGBTQ kids can meet new people, snack, listen to music and just relax and socialize.

Café Q was initiated last year by a parent who had searched for socializing opportunities for her LGBTQ daughter and found that few organized activities were available in the area. The Café is advised and chaperoned by gay adults and parents of LGBTQ kids, but the kids themselves decide what the Café will be and plan activities such as last spring’s Karaoke day.

The Café is open every third Sunday of the month. Admission is free. For more information, email CafeQ@bethhatikvah.org or call 908-277-0200.
