Emmanuel
“It is necessary to develop reception and accommodation facilities for LGBTIQ+ exiles in order to provide them with inclusive, caring and safe spaces. The multiplication of these centres across France will facilitate their asylum application process and their integration.”
Jade
“Being visible can serve to liberate me and tell what I want to tell a society that believes there is no transphobia.”
Juan
I left my home country because of discrimination and harassment by the police. Casa+ is the second community experience in Italy for me; before that, I was in another shelter, in which I have been mistreated by other beneficiaries.
Sara
“Take the time to learn about LGBTIQ+ asylum seekers’ specific needs.”
