Rainbow Response Coalition is not an agent, employee, subsidiary, nor does it have any authority to act on behalf of DC Coalition Against Domestic Violence except to receive donations on it’s behalf.
Welcome to the home page of Rainbow Response, a grassroots coalition that brings together organizations and leaders from the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and Questioning (LGBTQ) communities, along with traditional domestic violence service providers and government agencies. We collaborate to increase the awareness about Intimate Partner Violence (IPV) amid the relationships of LGBTQ individuals, educating within the LGBTQ communities and beyond.
We are continually identifying existing services that are provided in a manner respectful of the unique identities of LGBTQ survivors of IPV, as well as batterers; and we advocate for the creation of more LGBTQ-specific or sensitive services and adequate funding to support such services and all services for survivors of violence.
If you wish to become involved in this work, contact Rainbow Response Volunteer Coordinators.
Join us at The DC Center on Saturday, June 5, 7:00-8:30pm for our 2010 Pride Forum on Intimate Partner Violence, with a focus on LGBTQ Youth and Trans people. (PDF)
We are proud to announce the release of our first report on the incidence of IPV among LGBTQ people in the Metro DC area and attitude towards this problem.
