The Rainbow OK Foundation acknowledges Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people as the traditional owners and custodians of the land, and we pay our respect to their Elders, past, present and future.
"Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander lesbians, sistergirls and brotherboys are also disadvantaged in our LGBT, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander and mainstream community. The 2 Spirits program aim is to improve the sexual health of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander gay men and sistergirls through a 'Whole of Community Approach' to education, prevention, health promotion and community development activities."

The Rainbow OK Foundation wishes to acknowledge and pay our respects to our Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and Queer Elders, past, present and future.
"The needs of LGBTQ seniors are becoming more prominent here in Australia and overseas. This is due in part to the “baby-boomer” generation reaching older age and expecting to receive culturally appropriate services. In addition to the issues confronting all older people, LGBT seniors face particular issues related to their sexuality or gender identity. Healthy Communities, along with other organisations including the Gay & Lesbian Welfare Association and the Commonwealth Respite and Carelink Centre have formed an LGBT Ageing Action Group."
