About
The Rainbow Project is the leading LGBTQIA+ organisation in Northern Ireland, with 30 years of being at the heart of the community and supporting LGBTQIA+ people and their families. Over the last 15+ years, they have built their youth service “Rainbow Youth” into the only LGBTQIA+-specific youth service operating in Derry City and Strabane. They are trusted by families, as well as by community and statutory partners who recognise them as the go-to organisation for LGBTQIA+ support.
Rainbow Youth offers safe, inclusive spaces where young people can access support, have fun, build friendships and accessing support & learning. At the heart of Rainbow Youth is a participative model of youth work, where young people shape every part of the service, from staff interviews, co-designing workshops to evaluating outcomes. Their inclusive, youth-led approach ensures their services remain responsive and relevant to the needs of queer young people in Northern Ireland.
