About this service

If your teenager has told you they’re non-binary, one of your first questions might be: What does being non-binary mean? From accepting new concepts and language, to pronouns and names, to supporting gender-affirming care, there are plenty of ways to show your support for your non-binary teen.

This service may help:

  • Understand the best ways to support their wellbeing
  • Direct them to appropriate resources
