We Are Here

We acknowledge parts of the community are disproportionately impacted by COVID-19. First Nations people, QTIPOC, Asylum seekers, refugees and international students show continued resilience, strength and determination. The sex worker and hospitality industries have been hit hard and members of the LGBTIQA+ communities working in these industries have faced job losses and financial stress.

We want to let you know we support you, we are here for you. If you need support please get in touch.

All of our services are continuing via telehealth and online including individual, relationships and family counselling. Peer support groups are also continuing online. For more information go to ‘Our Programs’ tab or Contact us.

 

Need Support?

We are here to support you. All of our services are still available. Queerspace acknowledges some communities will be disproportionately impacted by COVID-19. We are working collaboratively with different orgs to respond to needs arising from the communities we serve. We are here to support you.
