The Break Room is, first and foremost, a safe and inclusive space. We are members and allies of the LGBTQiA community. Here you can be you. The Break Room supports all communities of color and understands that this in no way changes the injustices done and is still being done to BIPOC individuals and communities. We only wish to provide a safe and inclusive space for all persons of any and all colors/identities to let out all that is stuffed inside.
