Pineapple Support, Stripchat to Host LGBTQ Support Group

LOS ANGELES — Pineapple Support and Stripchat are hosting a free online support group for LGBTQ+ individuals within the adult industry, titled "LGBTQ and Proud."

The six-week group will be led by Pineapple Support therapist Rachael Fumiatti and begins June 5 at 1 p.m. (PDT). Sessions will take place weekly through July 10.

"This six-week group offers an accepting and supportive space for LGBTQ+ individuals to discuss their experiences and build connections with one another," said Fumiatti. "All are welcome, and every voice matters. Together we will create a community where people feel seen, heard, and supported."

Pineapple Support founder Leya Tanit added, “Pride Month is a time to make sure our LGBTQ+ community feels especially seen, heard, and supported. We are so grateful to Stripchat for making this group possible and for sharing in that commitment. LGBTQ+ industry professionals can face a unique set of challenges, and having a dedicated, affirming space to connect and be heard is so important. Pride is a time to celebrate identity and community, and we want every LGBTQ+ person in our industry to know that they are seen, valued, and never alone.”
