About the workshop:
This is a 4-week, NSW based program for any LGBTQ+ relationships. This series will be for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander community members who want to learn about healthy relationships.
The workshop provides a safe and respectful environment for LGBTQ+ community members of all genders to share their experiences, understand factors that contribute to healthy relationships and learn new skills to create healthier relationships with their loved ones.
The strength of the workshop lies in group participation, so we ask that all participants commit to the full program of one workshop per week, for four weeks.
- Week 1: Respect and Values
- Week 2: Communication and Boundary Setting
- Week 3: Sex and Consent
- Week 4: Conflict Resolution

Safety and Confidentiality
Your safety is our biggest priority. We understand that taking part in this kind of workshop may create feelings of vulnerability, or raise concerns about confidentiality and safety in small communities. We speak with everyone interested in the workshops about these concerns to make sure this will be an appropriate and safe space for them.
