Welcome to Okaeri!
What is Okaeri?
Okaeri is an opportunity for you to connect with LGBTQ+ Japanese/Japanese Americans and allies. Find support, resources and information and learn how Nikkei have embraced their LGBTQ family members.
While the Nikkei community has been a comforting home for many of us, LGBTQ+ Japanese Americans have often felt shamed, excluded or rejected. There is a sense that we have to hide our sexual orientation and gender identities.
