Launched in 2012, API Rainbow Parents of PFLAG NYC provides support in a safe environment for API LGBTQ+ people and families through monthly support meetings and safe gathering space and foster intergenerational conversations. What’s unique about API Rainbow Parents is that we address the culture-specific needs of Asian American, Pacific Islander, East Asian, and South Asian people and we position ourselves as a bridge between the API LGBTQ+ community and API immigrant communities to foster understanding of each other across generations and to help overcome cultural and language barriers. We strive to expand the ally base within API communities.
