About the Film
A Place Where I Belong follows six 2SLGBTQIA+ individuals with intellectual and/or developmental disabilities (IDD) as they navigate identity, love, and systemic barriers through an innovative non-profit program called Connecting Queer Communities (CQC). Inside CQC, participants find safety and solidarity. With the program at risk of disappearing, the film asks a vital question: what happens to a community when the only safe place they've ever known might be taken away?
Their stories of self-advocacy, family rejection, coming out, and joy make an urgent case for spaces where everyone truly belongs.
After Screening
Stay for a student-led panel discussion reflecting on the film's themes and what they mean for our campus and broader community.
