Affirm United

Affirm United (AU/AE), founded in 1982, is the United Church of Canada's organization of persons working through education and social integration for the welcoming of diverse peoples, especially the inclusion of gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender persons in the life and work of the Church.

AU / AE is composed of people of all sexual orientations and gender identities and so it is open to all people within the United Church of Canada who support these goals.
