LGBTQI group

NGNY

The LGBTQI Group aims to foster the general health and wellbeing of young people aged 12-25 who are a part of the local LGBTIQ+ community.  The support group provides a unique youth-led platform for participants to engage in a variety of activities and workshops that aim:

  • To provide relevant information, resources and activities to promote the general health and wellbeing of young people who are a part of our local LGBTIQ+ Community
  • To increase knowledge of where local young people can access further assistance and support if needed
  • To minimise stigma in relation to accessing assistance and support
  • Create effective communication strategies
  • To provide a safe and inclusive space for youth to engage in activities/ programs  
  • To further develop skills, strategies and support networks that may assist and support the young person’s general health and wellbeing

The Nambucca Valley Youth Services Centre has an open-door policy and is a registered ACON Welcome Space that provides a safe and inclusive space for all program participants to engage with.
