Know More
Mental health care as we know is expensive and inaccessible for everyone especially for those on the margins including the LGBT*QIA+ community. There are only a few mental health practioners who are queer and trans* friendly. Even during pre- pandemic times we felt the constant need to connect with each other, listen to, express our loneliness, fear, anxieties, losses and the pandemic has only exacerbated this need. We run a peer-counselling helpline and provide professional mental health support to people across the LGBT*QIA+ spectrum. Since July 2019 we have received 227 calls on our helpline, of which 101 were to gender-based violence support services and 58 were to access mental health services. We also do crisis intervention for people facing gender-based violence at home, in public, and/or in their workspaces. We also conduct listening circle and organise meet-ups to talk, rant, share our experiences and thereby, extend our solidarity to each othe Please call +91-9818151707 for more details to access these support services.
