About this place Mature Friends

Mature Friends is a Seattle social organisation for older gay and bisexual men, with roots in the city's 1970s gay activism, including the Lavender Panthers. It is a group, not a venue: the only address on file is a PO box, so there is nowhere to drop in. The opening hours shown are not meaningful. Check maturefriends.org for whether the group is still active, current meet-ups and how to join.

🏆SUPER LOVE IT,💯 it's 1 of my safe spaces I go2 to get guidance 4 my recovery journey, 📚 like everything nowadays tho, it gets targeted by racists, bigots & fascists that have always marginalized & dehumanized their fellow humans based on their own internal biases & unresolved shadow work[introspection & discipline of self & honest self accountability ☯️] But yeah if you're looking 4 help, go there!!! 🥳

Peer Seattle is a space that should be treated as sacred. Just like churches, schools, fire/police departments, and hospitals. Spoiler Alert: You will encounter every type of individual on the spectrum. For me, that is a blessing, but if that makes you anxious be advised. Peer gives better, healthier, more productive mental health understanding than many official organizations in the city. Peer IS NOT a mental health organization though. Peer will help you, no matter where you are at. So, be respectful. Do not bring violence here. Anything else-they will help. Peer is open 365 days a year. You have safe harbor for any holiday. Any forsaken day. Peer does not bloat their operating costs with a ton of employees. They keep core staff, and thrive from volunteer input. Thank you Peer Seattle. I will love you always.

Truly everything that's wrong with Seattle. Peer Seattle is ran by privileged people, unable or even unwilling to give resources, and patting themselves on the back for a job well done while they take money that could be used to actually help people. I had a meeting with a man (don't recall the name) and he basically told us not to bother even trying to stay out of homelessness and refused to give us any resources, instead blaming the issues on me. Incredibly unprofessional, and just plain evil. He couldn't even look me in the face, and he couldn't even bring up the courage to tell the truth or offer us anything at all. AVOID don't waste your time with these people.

Went here because me and my partner were going homeless, went in and immediately was told they couldn't help me. He said there was no bother checking any of the resources he had and that we should just give up. Avoid this place like the plague.

This community center is extremely valuable not only to our community, but to me personally. I come to Peer Seattle weekly for resources, and guidance. Thank you so very much Peer Seattle for giving me the resources to become the person that my family needed me to become.

Peer Seattle is a great part of my support system and I am grateful that they are there for me. I attend the SOR groups usually on Tues/Thurs every week.

I wasn’t very impressed. The website and the electronic display did not match the schedule printed on the counter….. so a meeting I thought was happening wasn’t. The front desk had no idea. They were too busy talking to each other about the election to really take time to help. One sweet girl did offer yo help me find a different meeting.
