Legebitra is one of Slovenia's main LGBTIQ+ organisations and the one a visitor is most likely to have practical use for. Its youth centre on Trubarjeva cesta was the first LGBTIQ+ youth centre in the country and works as a drop-in: a room to sit in, games, workshops, film evenings and people to talk to. It is aimed at young queer people and nobody is checked at the door.
Psychosocial counselling runs from the same address, and a legal advice service answers questions on partnership, family, health, gender recognition, housing and international protection. Testing for HIV and other sexually transmitted infections is free and anonymous and happens at the organisation's other address on Prešernova cesta, a few minutes away.
Beyond the drop-in the organisation does advocacy, research and training, publishes the LGBT magazine Narobe, and runs an LGBT+ business network and an LGBT-friendly certification that Slovenian companies can apply for.
