A LGBTQ wing, also known as the LGBTQ+ wing or another version of the LGBTQ acronym, is a subsidiary, autonomous, or independently allied front of a larger organization (usually a political party but occasionally another type of organization) that is formed in order to rally support for that organization from members and potential members of the LGBTQ community, as well as to focus on subjects and issues more widely relevant among that organization's wing. LGBTQ wings also provide information and guidance for the main party in issues regarding the LGBTQ community. Examples of this include such as marital and parental rights, health issues like HIV/AIDS, sexual healthcare and transgender health care, and freedom from discrimination in areas of employment and providing goods & services.
