Jessica Singh's ​son was 9 when he came out as gay. It was then Singh realised, there was a lack of support available for queer children.

She is now the programme facilitator of a new social group named Rainbow Rangatahi, which aims to support queer children aged 14 and under, based in Auckland's Gribblehirst community hub.
