I think you're mistaken...
I think you're mistaken - at least where the name is concerned...
International Association of the Rainbow Girls Is an organization for Girls (sponsored by the Masons).
Scouting for All is an organization that advocates more inclusiveness in the Boy Scouts.
There are such groups as "Adventure Scouts" and others as well...
The Boy Scouts of America even have (& have for over 30 years) a co-ed segment. Back when I was in - it was called "Explorers" or "Sea Scouts"... Seems there's a "Venturing" program these days - for youths as young as 14 (& completed 8th grade) that is co-ed. There's even discussion about allowing the girls in Venturing to earn the Eagle rank (about time)! But, to the best of my knowledge, the BSA still is officially NO LGBT staff/members. (Local groups may ignore this, but the leaders take a risk.)
There are also other groups out there (Navigators USA, etc.)... Perhaps you should do some research on the web - to see if you can find the group you're looking for. A few years ago, I saw a reference to a WICAN based scouting organization - as an example.

There was a set of stories 3 or 4 of them, many years back, on one of the sites, not sure which one, and I do not remember the name of the story, itmay have been something like "A Girly Family", where, there was an organization for transgenered and/or girly(sissy) boys. It was called Rainbow Scouts.
In real life, I do not think such an organization exists. First, which type of local organization would sponser it? Second, are there enough transgenedered youth, who would join such an organization and make it viable.

If this is what you are looking for it is a story at Crystals, maybe here too entitled "A Scouting Family"

Adding a story to an already established fictitious group...
...might be what you'd like to see. Still, it's exclusive by necessity rather than inclusive by choice. Perhaps how tg youth might feel because of their exclusion; there certainly is plenty of documention and sad testimony to that. Personally, if an organization such as what you've cited existed today, it wouldn't appeal to me if I were that age, because it would tend to continue to draw a distinction and exclusion and isolation. An "Us" v. "Them" situtation, but that's just me.
