EXPERIENCER MEETUPS
Volunteers travel across the province to host welcoming spaces where UFO and UAP experiencers can share what they’ve seen or lived through. Many people don’t have a safe place to talk about these moments and carrying those stories alone can feel isolating. Our meetups offer a respectful, inclusive and supportive environment where people can speak openly, listen to others and feel understood.
Meetups are announced on our Facebook page, where dates, locations and updates are posted regularly.
Why people come to these meetups
- A judgment‑free space – Participants know they won’t be dismissed, mocked or pressured to explain their experience away.
- Connection with others – Hearing similar stories helps people realize they’re not alone and that their experience fits within a broader community.
- Emotional support – Sharing can be grounding and validating, especially for those who have held their story privately for years.
- Learning and curiosity – Attendees often gain new perspectives, resources and insights from others’ experiences.
- Community building – These gatherings help strengthen a province‑wide network of people who care about the phenomenon and each other.
