ABOUT US
The RAINBOW OK Foundation was formed by a group of LGBTIQS community members who are advocates of quality Mental Health Advocacy and Su***de Supports services. Many of our members have been consumers of support services and seek to assist the LGBTIQ community by offering safe spaces online and in community where people can come together and seek fellowship to help reduce the rates of poor mental health, self-harm and su***de in our community. ABN 79440489935
We believe our Mental Health is improved by forming healthy connections with others in the LGBTIQS community, talking about freely about our mental health and wellbeing without fear of stigma, and seeking support from a mental health professional.
