  • Parentage Protection Project for Donor Agreements to protect non-biological parents who are in same-sex couples or LGBTQIA; 


  • Poly Families Project/Queer Kinship Project to support polyamorous families, parent groups of 3 or more, caretaking partnerships, kinship networks, and other non-nuclear families.  Will and Estate documents, CoParenting Agreements, and CoHabitation Agreements for Family Structure Self-Determination - helping queer families understand their options for intentionality and resiliency in their family connections - and End-Of-Life Self-Determination: medical and legal advance directives to ensure your family connections and self-determination persist in the event of illness or injury


  • Asylee Assistance Project to assist those who have already been granted asylum based on their LGBTQIA status with applying for an Adjustment of Status (aka a Green Card) to ensure their safety from being deported. 


Our eligibility criteria are: 

  • Household income at 250% or less of the federal poverty level ($31k for an individual, $42k for a couple, $53 for a couple with a child or triad - see the income and eligibility chart here) 
  • Approximate net worth of less than $50k 
  • NYC and Hudson Valley area residents (additional limitations based on project type and location) 
  • We serve same-sex couples, LGBTQI individuals, and non-nuclear and underserved family forms, including platonic co-parents, polyamorous families, parent groups of 3 or more, caretaking partnerships, and kinship networks
