Problem Statement
How might we give parents the tools they need to better understand and support their children who are LGBTQ+?
Customer / Problem
Our customers are the parent/s of the LGBTQ+ youth who struggle with how to adapt to their child's identity. They might not have the information or experience they need to support their children.
Solution
Our solution is to hold events such as parent information groups, festivals and workshops centred around helping parents support their LGBTQ+ youth.
These events would be a mix of peer support, mentoring and workshops. They would be available at a small cost to parents and other friends and family of LGTBQ+ youth.
