B	Beth Tyler on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Kind Space is a place for queer and gender diverse people to find community and support. It's also home to Foundations and Pathways a peer support program for trans and gender diverse folk :)
M	Makenzy Reid on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Myself and friends have been treated poorly by kind staff in the past. They single out and even bully individuals in efforts to force people out. It's unprofessional and inexcusable. Another noteworthy point is that allies are typically not welcomed with open arms which is rather unfortunate. Those who want to help and care are dismissed.
É	Émile Desmarrais on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This review is about the youth group. Kind is just ok, leaning bad. From my experience the staff are very cool and nice, but the people attending are something else entirely. If you're in your late teens and looking to hang out or speak with people around your age group with no dramatics, don't bother. Maybe I'm unlucky, but I haven't seen a meetup where someone hasn't run out of the room screaming and crying or randomly told me how and how much they've hurt themselves this week. If you're lucky, you might find a few people willing to just chill, play boardgames or have a casual conversation with, but I wouldn't always bet on it. If you're expecting 18 year olds who act like they're 18, this probably isn't the place for you. The food IS pretty bomb though.
L	Lia Walsh on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Amazing organization with great programs for the queer community. Also really proactive with regard to accessibility (physical and otherwise) and run an incredible number of free events. Highly recommended for those who are looking to meet new people and build community!
K	Ken St. John on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Kind Space provides incredible, invaluable resources for the 2SLGBTQIA+ community. I am so thankful to live somewhere that has such a wonderful space to learn, visit, and grow, and am so grateful for the programming offered, the volunteers, and the staff who help run it. There is always room for improvement, and Kind Space seems genuinely committed to having that as a priority (as tough as that is) which honestly makes them even better in my eyes. Thank you!
