Turk Gays & Lesbians
It's believed there are more than 2 million Turks living in Germany, with at least 15 000 of them living "out" in the LGBT community. Their homosexuality is often a clash of cultures with their Turkish heritage, and this association is here to help. Not only do they organise social and support groups, they also have a Turkish LGBT help line.
