While we have made great strides towards equality in Canada, lesbian, gay, bisexual and trans-identified (LGBT) people still live in basic fear for their lives in many parts of the world.
In the spirit of, and with homage to the Underground Railroad, the mission of the Rainbow Railroad is to help LGBT people as they seek safe haven from state enabled violence, murder or persecution.
Rainbow Railroad is a volunteer-based registered charity.
Who do we help? Our current focus is on LGBT individuals who have faced physical violence or face an imminent threat of violence. Currently we are working with LGBT communities where our connections are strongest in the Caribbean, Africa and former Soviet States.
