Creating a more inclusive community.
The Diversity Project offers a safe space and friendly face to young LGBTIQA+ people.
Championing community inclusivity
Everyone is unique.
The Diversity Project aims to create a safer, more inclusive and healthier community for young people under 25 years old who are LGBTIQA+ (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, gender divers and non-binary, intersex, queer and asexual) in Greater Shepparton and Moira Shires.
Community members who identify as LGBTIQA+ come from all walks of life and social and ethnic backgrounds. The inclusiveness of all people in communities, regardless of their LGBTIQA+ identity is essential to champion diversity. Young people who recognise themselves as LGBTIQA+ need to feel safe and welcomed in community spaces, just like anyone else.
How does the Diversity Project provide support?
At the centre, we provide support to diverse communities through education and creating safe spaces. You’ll be supported through a combination of:
- Diversity Youth Groups – monthly youth groups for LGBTIQA+ young people aged 12-25 provide a space to celebrate, connect & thrive. Make new friends, enjoy fun activities, art and craft, games, movies, and more. Groups are free to attend with snacks provided.
- Community development – community education and professional development opportunities to help build the capacity of your staff and/or service.
- Collaboration and promoting inclusion – be supported to consider advocacy, build equity, and collaborate with the Diversity Project on events and programs to build visibility.
