We know that LGBTQIA+ young people and their families can continue to face discrimination – but we also know that for young people, having family who are supportive and accepting can be massively protective. Parents don’t have to have all of the answers – just knowing that you’re in their corner is something that can be incredibly powerful.
For parents and carers with young people who identify as LGBTQIA+ community, you may feel uncertain about how best to support them.
ReachOut have a range of great resources if you’d like to learn more, and they’d also love to hear from you about how you’ve supported any young people in your life.
