If you've been out and about this year you may have seen our 'Homo!' and 'Lesbo!' flyers.Read more on what it's all about Whether you liked them or not, they got your attention! And most of us are happy to wear those labels with gusto and pride. However for a lot of youth today, homophobia is still a very real issue! The last thing youth need when trying to figure out where they stand in the world, is people yelling homophobic insults or being physically threatened or harmed! What do we do? Rainbow Youth is a not for profit organisation working to help support queer youth. Part of our work is going in to schools and educating all youth with our Affirming Diversity Workshops, we try to create more understanding and a safer environment for youth to freely express who they are, whatever that may be. We also provide safe spaces for queer youth with our very popular peer social groups.
