EMBRACELETS

An Embracelet is a handmade bracelet that is given out by Mama Dragons at events. It's a warm hug around your wrist to remind you that you are loved.

​

Not a mother of an LGBTQ+ child?

While our online support communities, Paper Hugs and Wrapped in Hugs are only for mothers of LGBTQ children, we invite you to participate in the Parachute eLearning platform and QPR Suicide Prevention training, which is open to all parents and community members surrounding LGBTQ+ children, including teachers, therapists, and extended family.

You can also volunteer for Mama Dragons or become a bracelet maker for Embracelets.
