Want to learn more about the Rainbow Community?
The Rainbow Community is diverse and evolving, which can seem confusing to some people. The Y’s Rainbow Education 101 programme for schools, business and community organisations can help!

- LGBTQIA+ terminology & meaning
- Difference between sex, gender & sexuality
- Stereotypes & myths
- Pronouns – correct usage & why that’s important
- Mental Health in the Rainbow Community
- The Rainbow Tick
Get in touch today, and begin to engage more confidently with the Rainbow Community.
The Y also facilitates two support groups for Rainbow Community members, and parents/caregivers/ whānau to the Rainbow Community members. Check them out here:
