Support for LGBTQI migrants
RFSL offers social activities for all LGBTQI migrants in Sweden, as well as counselling and legal advice to LGBTQI asylum seekers.
The project is partly funded by the EU through AMIF (The Asylum, Migration and Integration fund)
Unfortunately we cannot assist people who are outside of Sweden, except with information and legal advice.
