For three month( Dec 2015, Jan/Feb 2016) we counseled 28 LGBTQ youths and their 72 cases. And we support 10 LGBTQ youths in crisis providing food, daily necessities, medical services, counsellings and so on.
And we hosted one more special DDingDong Lunch(Totobob) for Chistmas and that was last one in last year. We rebooted it February. In this year we will host this program twice a month.
And a transgender girl who’s name is Yeonhee visited us and she needed a urgent help in last week of november. She was beaten by her own father and some pastors who tried a conversion therapy to her. So we started fundraising progect on December and we supported her medical treatment, counselling and accommodation for 2 months.
And we asked other human rights organisations and churches to help ‘Yeonhee’. So ‘Movement against Conversion Therapy’ was formed on January. And it prepares legal counteraction about conversion therapy as a violation. As a first step ‘Yeonhee’ went to a trial about her father for statement of victim and we were with her. And we are going to sue a conversion therapy church.
And we held a fundraising party on 5th Dec 2015. We shared our story of 2015 with our regular domors and raised fund at the party.
With thankful heart
