Family Services Ottawa: Around the Rainbow

Around the Rainbow is the 2SLGBTQ+ programme of Family Services Ottawa, a counselling charity at 312 Parkdale Avenue near Hintonburg. It runs Transcend, a group for trans and gender-diverse youth aged 11 to 17, support for parents and families, and the yearly Bowl Around the Rainbow fundraiser, which was sold out for 2026. It serves local families rather than visitors. Phone 613-725-3601 ext. 105, or see familyservicesottawa.org for programme details.
