NSRAP

Nova Scotia Rainbow Action Project

In 1995, about a year after the GaeGala folded, Nova Scotians who attended a conference in Ottawa noticed that nobody could address queer issues back home. Since January 1996, NSRAP has been meeting every three months, and was officially incorporated in February of 2000.

Our Mission Statement: We seek to foster change in our communities and our society at large so that people of all sexual orientations are valued and included. We will achieve this through: Community Development, Networking, Outreach, Education & Political Action.
