*New* 🏳️‍🌈LGBTIQA+ Peer Support Group🏳️‍🌈 for victim-survivors of sexual violence

LGBTIQA+ people with experience of sexual violence are invited to join our new peer support group.

Sessions will begin online at the end of October with exact dates to be confirmed.

This group is a space for victim-survivors to connect with others who have lived through similar experiences of sexual violence in a way that affirms their reality and reduces isolation. It is a confidential, inclusive and non-judgemental space where your experiences are respected, heard and validated and you can:

  • Feel respected and supported
  • Connect with peers who understand your experience
  • Share as much or as little as you want
  • Be empowered to co-create the group and help guide discussions
  • Explore wellbeing and self-care
  • Build connection and community

The group will be facilitated by trained peers who are LGBTIQA+ and victim-survivors. A Laurel House counsellor will also facilitate to provide professional support.

To express your interest in participating, please email Toni at groups@laurelhouse.org.au or call 6431 9711.
