Deaf Youth Rainbow (DYR)
http://www.deafqueer.net/cmra/dyr/
DYR is an organization sponsored by Capital Metropolian Rainbow Alliance which provides the necessary support and resources for D/deaf queer youths. Gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender/transgendered youths are often overlooked in terms of resources and social groups. That is changing in light of new organizations that now offer youth-related services and activities.

Regard. The National Organisation of Disabled Lesbians, Gay Men and Bisexuals based in the UK. Campainging, Database of accessible gay venues incluning clubs and bars. Help-line, newsletter, socials, access audits and equality training.
CMRA is mainly a social/cultural/educational organization. Fellowship and the need to stay in touch are very important to the area's Deaf Gays & Lesbians. Social outlets include the "coffeehouses" which offers a different/theme each time. One such coffeehouse may be a get-together at a local bar, another may be a beach outing. CMRA frequently hosts parties, both for fund raising and for plain simple fun.
The purpose of this Alliance is to establish and maintain a society of Deaf Gays and Lesbians to encourage and promote the educational, economical, and social welfare; to foster fellowship; to defend our rights; and advance our interests as Deaf Gay and Lesbian citizens concerning social justice; to build up an organization in which all worthy members may participate in the discussion of practical problems and solutions related to their social welfare.
