The Stardust Community Co-operative is a community centre created by and for queer, neurodivergent people living in and around Hamilton, Ontario. You may have known us before as the Stardust Therapeutic Collective! We’re still figuring out exactly what that looks like and are in the process of incorporating as a co-operative to make sure that all of our members get to participate in making this project happen. There are some things already happening while we get organized! 1) We have a whole bunch of social and support groups run both at the Stardust space and by Stardust members at other locations. Check out the events page to learn more! 2) Many of our members provide therapy, counselling, or peer support services using some of the Stardust office space. This organization has grown out of The Stardust Collective which was primarily focused on these types of services. If you have any questions or would like to join us, please email us.
