Gay Switchboard Dublin : Parents Support
Parents and family members of those who are gay, lesbian, bisexual or transgender often have initial difficulties coming to terms with their son’s or daughter’s sexuality. We offer telephone based and person-to-person support to these parents. This service is provided by parents of gay and lesbian children who have been through similar experiences. Parents Support aims to ‘walk alongside’ parents as they come to terms with their child’s sexuality.
Parents Support provides a unique insight into the experiences and emotions of parents coming to terms with their child’s sexuality.
To contact Parents Support or if you are a parent interested in volunteering, please phone us on 01-8721055. The Helpline service is available Monday to Friday from 7:00 pm to 9:00 pm.
"It is great to share my experiences with parents whose son or daughter has just came out.”
