The “Pride & Parent” workshops are behind us – see how it went!

This past weekend (June 7–8), we held the “Pride & Parent” workshops – a unique space created for queer women, moms, and individuals with experiences of womanhood who are considering parenthood.

During the two-day gathering, participants had the opportunity to:

• gain practical knowledge about the legal and medical aspects of pregnancy and parenthood for LGBT+ people,

• hear personal stories and share their own experiences in a safe, welcoming space,

• meet others in similar situations and begin forming networks of community-based support.

The workshops were both educational and community-building. Our goal was for everyone to leave not only with more knowledge, but also with greater confidence and readiness for their parenting journey.

We are deeply grateful to all participants for their presence, openness, and trust!

What’s next?

Interest in the workshops exceeded our expectations – the spots filled up in the blink of an eye, showing just how needed initiatives like this truly are. That’s why we’re already thinking about future editions – including outside of Warsaw. To make that happen, we need your support. Organizing each session costs around 10,000 PLN – covering things like expert fees, venue rental, food, and materials. We want these workshops to remain free and accessible to every queer mom or queer woman* considering parenthood.

Support us in making future sessions happen. With your donation, we can create more queer, safe spaces where rainbow families and queer women* can talk about parenthood, ask questions, share experiences, and feel less alone.
