This week I’m chatting with Ashley, a rainbow dad and the Executive Officer and one of the founders of Rainbow Families, an Australian charity that supports, connects and empowers LGBTQ+ parents and their families.

When Ashley became a dad in 2012, he was surprised by the lack of support available for LGBTQ+ parents. Rather than accepting that gap, he joined with other queer parents and helped establish Rainbow Families in 2015. Since then, he and the organisation have supported thousands of parents across Australia to feel confident, connected and true to themselves.

Our conversation explores everything you would hope to hear from someone with Ashley’s experience. If you are on the pathway to becoming a dad, or already a dad wondering what support is available for you and your family, this episode is made for you.
