Description
Our 0800 support line and online instant-messaging chat service are both answered by LGBTIQA+/Rainbow identifying peers who are trained to provide information to others in topics around sexual identity, gender identity and diverse sex characteristics. The phoneline and chat service are both free, confidential and all-ages. We are here to support Rainbow or questioning people, as well as their whānau, friends and supporters.
Our Transgender Peer Support Service supports transgender, non-binary and gender-diverse Aucklanders and their whānau to access support, information and a sense of community. This service is free for people aged 28 years and older who live in the wider Auckland region (Auckland, Waitematā and Counties Manukau District Health Board areas).
We work closely with RainbowYOUTH who support gender-diverse people aged 27 and younger in Auckland, and people of all ages in Northland.
We also offer face-to-face counselling by qualified counsellors in Auckland or via videoconferencing in other parts of the country.
Ages
Child / Tamariki, Youth / Rangatahi, Adult / Pakeke, Older adult / Kaumātua
