Welcome to Rainbow Families Council
Rainbow Families Council is a volunteer community organization working for same-sex parented families in Victoria. We bring together lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and intersex parenting groups, families, children's and family organisations and other allies.
We aim to share information and resources to support families, children and prospective parents. To work for social and legal recognition for our children and families. To speak out about the diverse realities of our lives. To represent the best interests and rights of children living in rainbow families, parents and prospective parents to government and non-government bodies. To encourage families to be visible and proud.
Rainbow families are an important part of the changing definition of family in Australia. We invite you to join us, get informed, get support and get active.
