Be a Part of a Supportive Community

If you are looking for a place to discuss your experiences as an Orthodox or frum parent of an LGBTQ+ child, our support groups are a confidential and affirming space. Whether your child has just shared their identity with you or you are navigating family or community issues, our support groups are a safe place to ask questions as well as process and  discuss your feelings with other parents who have similar experiences.

If you are looking for support for your LGBTQ+ child, learn more about our LGBTQ+ resources. 

Virtual Support Groups

All of our support groups provide a safe, confidential, and nonjudgmental environment for exploring our identities.
