Powerful, short award-winning documentary films that show how ethnically and religiously diverse families learn to support and accept their lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) children – informed by the Family Acceptance Project’s groundbreaking research.

These videos are informed by their years of research and work to help diverse families support their LGBTQ children. Watch their films, read their family education materials and research publications. These videos  – include family accepting and rejecting behaviors that our research shows contribute to serious health risks like suicide, substance abuse and HIV, or that promote overall health and well-being. Family rejection increases family conflict that can lead to homelessness and placement in foster care and juvenile justice facilities. And family acceptance increases family connectedness and contributes to wellness, self-esteem, and a positive sense of the future for LGBTQ youth.
