Desi Rainbow Parents & Allies

Desi Rainbow Parents & Allies was conceived in 2017 for South Asian families and friends of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer and questioning individuals to learn about LGBTQIA+ issues, find community with one another and learn how to better support their loved ones. We now serve Desi Diaspora LGBTQIA+ individuals, their parents, siblings, grandparents and allies with programs offering support, education and advocacy. We seek to build a Desi Diaspora community that values, affirms and celebrates all LGBTQIA+ identities. Our mission is to foster understanding and acceptance among families, with the goal of affirming and celebrating our LGBTQIA+ loved ones.
