We have officially launched a Naloxone Dispensing Machine! It is free, anonymous, available 24/7 at our wulempuri barring site, and able to reverse an opioid overdose in minutes.

Overdose has many faces. Reducing stigma means making life-saving tools accessible to everyone who needs them, without judgement.

Huge thanks to our incredible harm reduction team, and to Kat Theophanous MP, Nathan Lambert MP, Mayor Emily Dimitriadis , and our friends at the Alcohol and Drug Foundation and Uniting Vic.Tas for celebrating this launch with us.

Can you see the signs of coercive control?

Sometimes controlling behaviour can be mistaken for care, concern or affection.

It might look like a partner:
-insisting on knowing where you are at all times
-checking your messages or monitoring your phone
-deciding who you can spend time with
-controlling what you wear
-making you feel guilty for saying no

The difference between care and control matters. We all have the right to feel safe, respected and free to make our own choices in a relationship.

Respect Victoria's See the Signs campaign aims to help Victorians recognise coercive control and understand what healthy, respectful relationships look like.

If you or someone you know is experiencing family violence, support is available. In an emergency, call 000.

Preventing overdose takes more than one person or one service. It takes collaboration, connection and making sure people can access the right support when they need it.

Working together across health professionals and wraparound services can help reduce stigma, connect people with care and make sure no one falls through the gaps.

Our Manager Medical Services, Alaa Bondok, features in the Raise It campaign, sharing the importance of seeing the person, not just the substance, and the role health professionals play in connecting people with the support they need.

As Speech Pathology Week comes to an end, we are celebrating the ways communication helps people choose, participate and thrive.

Communication gives children the confidence to express their needs, share their ideas, build relationships and take part in everyday activities. With the right support, children can develop skills that help them connect with their families, peers and communities.

Through our Early Childhood Approach service, our team works alongside children and families to provide early supports that build communication, development and confidence. Our Speech Pathologists support children under 9 years and their families to identify goals and create pathways for children to participate and thrive.

Everyone deserves to feel safe and be treated with respect.

We recently made a submission to a Victorian inquiry into hate crimes against LGBTIQA+ people, sharing what we have learned through our LGBTIQA+ services and the experiences of our clients and communities.

Our submission calls for action, including:

✅Better support for people affected by hate crimes
✅Stronger laws to help prevent and respond to hate crimes
✅More training for Victoria Police
✅Stronger action to address hate and harmful content online
✅Continued investment in LGBTIQA+ community services

Everyone should be able to live free from hate, discrimination and fear. We will continue to stand alongside LGBTIQA+ communities and advocate for a Victoria where everyone feels safe, supported and included.

We are incredibly proud to have taken home the Workplace Inclusion Award at GLOBE Victoria’s annual Victorian Pride Awards, alongside Transgender Victoria, for the Being Valued Toolkit.

The Being Valued Toolkit gives workplaces practical tools and guidance to better understand, prevent and respond to gendered violence experienced by LGBTIQA+ people, helping create safer and more inclusive workplaces across Victoria.

It was a wonderful evening celebrating the people and organisations making a difference for LGBTIQA+ communities.

A huge congratulations to all the winners and finalists, and a special thank you to GLOBE Victoria for recognising this important work. 🩷 🧡 💛 💚 💙 💜 ❤️

World Indigenous Peoples Day is a reminder that recognising the strength, leadership and knowledge of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples must go hand in hand with addressing the inequities they continue to face.

We recently made a submission to the Australian Parliament's Inquiry into Racism, Hate and Violence Directed at Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander People.

Our submission is based on the knowledge and experiences of our Aboriginal Health Team, First Nations staff and community members.

Racism affects people's health, wellbeing and access to healthcare. That is why we are calling for action, including:

✅A national truth-telling process and progress towards Treaty
✅Stronger action to stop racism across organisations
✅More support for Aboriginal Community Controlled Health Organisations
✅Better data and changes across health, education and justice

Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities know what works. We are proud to support their voices and will continue working alongside First Nations communities to help create a fairer and healthier future.
