Rainbow Families

About

The mission of Rainbow Families is to build a community which fosters resiliency by connecting, supporting and empowering lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer and intersex (LGBTQI ) families

Who we are

Rainbow Families is the peak NSW organisation supporting LGBTQI parents and children. We work with partners and volunteers to deliver a range of programs. These include educational seminars, parenting education, playgroups, and social, community and cultural events. Rainbow Families has introduced a strong voice for LGBTQI parents and their children in NSW, providing advocacy, support and opportunities to celebrate our families.

Rainbow Families is governed by a community management committee. We are a not for profit organisation that first convened in early 2015, and has been incorporated since April 2016. We rely on fundraising, public community grants and private donations to ensure our quality programs continue.

Through our program, Rainbow Families works to help those in need to receive the right assistance. In particular, our programs help ensure;

• Families get the right help to support their babies, children and teenagers, including social support and
parenting programs
• Culture, sexual and gender diversity is acknowledged and celebrated throughout all our service delivery
• Build parents and children's resilience and reduce systemic and social discrimination experienced by Rainbow
Families
• Celebrate and nurture a supportive community
• LGBTQI parents with experience of depression and post natal depression and anxiety have access to sensitive
information and referral to specialist support
• Support children and young people to build a social support networks
• Empower parents to provide the best care for their children by providing quality parenting programs and
education
