Queer Family aims to create community for LGBTIA+ individuals living in the Northern Rivers of Northern NSW. Through community events, peer support and visibility, Queer Family creates family and belonging. Queer Family is soon to move into new premises after a long search post-flood damage.
The funding provided by this PFA Small Grant will assist Queer Family in creating free library of Queer-authored books available to the local community. A Queer library onsite will encourage visitors, create a talking-point for community, become a valuable community resource, and offer Queer-affirming, Queer-representing books to young people who may struggle to access such media otherwise.
