Rainbow Families New Zealand

Rainbow Families New Zealand is an organization dedicated to building relationships and connections
for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgendered (LGBT) parents, prospective parents, and their children.

We encourage our families to form strong community ties locally as well as across New Zealand by offering support and friendship to individuals at all stages of parenting and by providing a forum for our children to make life-long friends.

We meet regularly across the country in specific regions through informal family gatherings, celebrations, and events, and we participate in an online forum to stay connected across
New Zealand.

"For children and youth, this seemingly simple act of coming together and meeting other children and youth that face similar challenges plants the seeds of self-acceptance and moves them towards a deeper appreciation for
their families."
