RFSL Newcomers is a network for and with asylum seekers, undocumented immigrants and newly arrived LGBTQ people in Sweden. Our members come from all parts of the world and have often fled persecution in their native country because of sexual orientation, gender identity or gender expression.
Are you an LGBTQ person who are seeking asylum, are newly arrived in Sweden or have had your asylum application refused? Welcome!
Newcomers is a non-profit organisation and there are many ways for you to get involved.
Many who come in contact with Newcomers need help with everything from legal counselling to getting their basic needs satisfied.
