Help for LGBTQ+ Ukrainian refugees in the US
Russia's war has displaced millions in Ukraine. LGBTQ+ people are particularly vulnerable in times of displacement and need a safe and affirming shelter and community support. QUA is connecting a network of LGBTQ+ folks and allies in the United States who are willing to provide support to Ukrainian LGBTQ+ refugees. Food, housing, translation services, pro bono legal support—we are looking for people in need of any or all the range of assistance.
If you are looking for help and support, please fill out one of the forms, if you need some emergency help please shoot an email to sos@qua.community.
