Welcome to Rainbow Rights: A Human Rights Legal Information Guide for 2SLGBTQIA+ Nova Scotians

We created this guide to empower members of the 2SLGBTQIA+ community in Nova Scotia (Mi’kma’ki) to understand their human rights and what options and resources are available to them if they face discrimination.

As queer people, it can be challenging to navigate our systems, our society, our laws, our schools, and our workplaces as our authentic selves. Our hope in writing this guide is to equip members of our community with a solid understanding of:

✨ Human rights protections, including provincial and federal human rights legislation
✨ Tips for navigating difficult conversations such as coming out at work, and
✨ How to self-advocate for inclusive spaces and practices

Share this resource with queer folks who need it, and with those who support queer communities.
