About Newcomers Youth

Newcomers Youth is a project of RFSL Ungdom (the Swedish Youth Federation for LGBTQI rights) that supports young LGBTQI refugees and migrants who have fled persecution based on their sexual orientation, gender identity, and/or gender expression, as well as for LGBTQI people who have just moved to or already live in Sweden between the ages 15-30. NCY is founded on four pillars: creating safety, vocalizing representation, being a part of the community, and seeking justice.

We support our members through: 

1. Giving free legal advice and follow up sessions during the asylum-seeking process 
2. Information and activities for enhancing the well-being.
3. Creating safe meeting spaces for community building with other LGBTQI Newcomers
4. Organizing activist conferences, workshops, pride events, and youth camps.
5. Providing membership certificate about the involvement at Newcomers Youth
