LGBTQ+ Affirming Faith Spaces, Website: http://www.spectrumcenter.umich.edu
The Spectrum Center and local faith leaders have compiled a list of LGBTQ+ affirming faith spaces in the Ann Arbor area. In considering whether or not these spaces are affirming, two questions were asked, “Will your space perform same-sex weddings/marriage ceremonies” and “can LGBTQ people serve in all areas of leadership?”
