Before I found Rainbow United, I didn’t feel like I belonged anywhere. Sometimes people didn’t listen to me because I have a disability. Here, I feel proud of who I am — both queer and disabled. I have friends who understand me, and I get to speak up about what matters. It makes me feel strong and safe

Rainbow United gives me a voice. I used to be shy, but now I talk at meetings and share my story. I know that what I say is important. I love being part of a group where people respect me, help me, and celebrate who I am.

I was nervous to join, but now Rainbow United is like a second family. I can be myself without hiding. I’ve learned how to stand up for my rights, and I’ve made friends who cheer me on. I feel proud of me!
