What is this group?
Generation Queer (GQ) is Rainbow Youths’ social-support group for under 18 year olds, who identify as queer, gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, takataapui, fa’afafine, questioning or curious.
Like all Rainbow Youth Groups, GQ is totally drug, smoke and alcohol free.

Who goes to it?
GQ usually has between 20 and 30 young people at each group ranging in age from 13 to 18. Most people who come are at high school. We have people coming along from all parts of Auckland, from as far south as Manukau, up to as far north as Orewa.
When we meet
Fortnightly on Fridays, 6pm till 8pm. Coming along once doesn’t commit you to anything; some people come to every meeting and some come when they can – it doesn’t matter. You’re always welcome.
Where do we meet?
At the Rainbow Youth Centre, 281 Karangahape Rd, Auckland (next to Heroes Comics and the Newton Pharmacy).
