Our story

Built by the community, for the community

Abjad Pride started because three volunteers kept meeting newcomers who needed support existing services didn't offer.

Why we exist

No one should navigate this alone

Abjad Pride exists to make sure no one has to navigate being an LGBTQ+ newcomer from the MENA region alone.

What we hold to

Our values

Confidentiality

What you share with us stays with us.

Peer, not clinical

We're people who understand your journey.

Language first

Support shouldn't require translating yourself first.

Accountability

Small team, real structure

Abjad Pride operates with finalized bylaws, a code of conduct, and documented intake processes.
