China Rainbow Network (CRN)始创于1996年,由北美华人同性恋者、双性恋者以及跨性别人群(LGBT)共同组成。目前,CRN拥有会员数千余人,是北美最大的华人同志互助团体,也是唯一专门服务于华人LGBT的美国注册NPO。一直以来,华人同志隐藏在大家的视线背后。在北美,我们是少数群体中的少数群体,一方面,群体内部并没有一个高效的沟通交流机制,大家散落在四面八方,另一方面,对外没有一个声音代表我们,我们的权利诉求没有得到表达。所以自成立后,CRN一直致力于为北美地区的广大华人同志提供社交与资讯服务, 宣传和倡导健康生活、真诚交友的理念,促进同志文化在华人社区的传播与发展,扩大北美华人同志的影响力,并争取同志权益,共同推动同志运动进程。
