Ben Amics is the LGBTI+ association of the Balearic Islands, working out of an office in Palma's Arxiduc district. It is the organisation behind the city's Pride and the point of contact for most of the queer community life on Mallorca.
It runs an information and support service for LGBTI people, a separate service aimed at young people, training work in schools and companies, and its own research: on discrimination in Palma, on trans unemployment in the islands, on suicide risk among LGBTI young people, and on recovering the historical memory of the islands' queer community.
For a visitor it is the place to ask if something goes wrong, and the place to find out what is happening beyond the bars. Membership and volunteering are both open.
