SALGA is a not-for-profit, all-volunteer organization, serving the South Asian LGBT & Questioning community for over 10 years.

SALGA-NYC is a social, political and support group for lesbians, gay men, bisexual and transgender people who trace their descent from countries such as Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Bhutan, Burma, India, Nepal, Pakistan, Sri Lanka and Tibet as well as people of South Asian descent from countries such as Guyana, Trinidad and Kenya.

Our support group meets every second Saturday of the month from 4:00pm to 6:00pm at the Lesbian and Gay Community Center located at 208 W 13th Street, (between 7th & 8th Aves.), New York, NY. Our support group meetings are open to South Asians only. All are welcome to our social events. For more on our meetings and meeting calendar click here.
