Do I have to be a Spectrum member? 

Nope! Spectrum is an open community discussion group, and there is no registration or sign up to participate in the clothing swap or discussion group. If you are interested in staying up to date with Spectrum, please email womenscenter@umbc.edu to be added to our mailing list. 

Do I have to stay the whole time? 

Nope! You can come for just the clothing swap, just the discussion group, or a little of both. 

Do I need to bring anything?

The Spectrum Discussion Group makes space for UMBC community members who identify as trans, genderqueer, gender fluid, outside of the gender binary, and/or those who are questioning their gender identity.
