Intersex Support for Parents
Private facebook group

This private (but not secret) facebook group was formed around eight years ago by Tiescha Lohman, parent of an intersex child, supported by Mx Anunnaki Ray Maquez, an Intersex man who is a parent mentor, educator and activist. Both are based in the USA. The group now has over 490 members from many countries including Aotearoa New Zealand. Most are the parents or other close family of intersex children. The group exists to support one another and to share resources. There is so much strength to be found in walking with others who understand the journey we are all on as we seek to support and protect our beautiful, perfect, little ones. If you would like to join us, please click on our link, and provide a wee bit of information about why you would like to be added to the group.
