Small Groups, Deep Connections
Tribe 12’s Tribes are niche communities that are formed around a common interest or identity. Tribes and Tribe events are open to all who fit the interest or identity that the Tribe is built around. Tribes do not require membership, meaning that all event registrations are first come, first served. Newcomers are welcome to each and every Tribe meeting!
Our Tribes change all the time to meet the current needs and desires of the young professionals we serve. If a Tribe is no longer working or needed, it will "sunset" or close. We also have Tribes which have been active for years.
If you have an idea for a Tribe, reach out to yo@tribe12.org to ask about hosting an initial event to gage interest in your Tribe idea.
