No one should have to choose between homelessness and violence. Yet for too many people, that's the reality. This 𝗡𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗛𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗹𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗪𝗲𝗲𝗸, we sat down with Kirsty and Dani from Zig Zag Support Centre, our member organisation. Zig Zag do incredible work in the wider Brisbane region, providing housing and sexual violence support service for young women, trans and gender diverse young people aged 12 to 25. Kirsty and Dani walked us through the realities they see every day: young people forced to leave their homes due to violence, the increased vulnerability that comes with homelessness, and the life-changing difference that specialist, trauma-informed sexual violence and housing support can make. Thank you Kirsty and Dani for sharing your expertise and for the vital work you do supporting young victim-survivors every day. #Homelessness #HomelessnessWeek #HousingIsSafety #EndSexualViolence

𝗛𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝘃𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗱 𝗱𝗶𝗴𝗶𝘁𝗮𝗹 𝗲𝘃𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗮𝘀 𝗽𝗮𝗿𝘁 𝗼𝗳 𝗿𝗲𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘀𝗲𝘅𝘂𝗮𝗹 𝘃𝗶𝗼𝗹𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲? The Sexual Violence Review Board wants to hear from victim-survivors and specialist support workers to better understand experiences of providing digital evidence during the criminal justice process. This might include sharing: 📱 mobile phones 💻 laptops or other devices 💬 text messages or social media communications 📷 photos or other digital material If you're a victim-survivor and feel ready to participate, your experiences can help identify practical ways to improve how Queensland's justice system responds to sexual violence. You can take part regardless of whether your matter progressed to court. If you're a specialist support worker or service, please consider sharing this opportunity with people you support and, where appropriate, assisting them before, during or after their conversation with the Review Board. Conversations are: ✔️ Voluntary and confidential ✔️ Approximately 60 minutes ✔️ Available online, by phone or in person Every insight shared contributes to a stronger understanding of where systems can improve and helps inform recommendations to better support victim-survivors across Queensland.

𝗜𝗺𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝗿𝗲𝘃𝗶𝗲𝘄 𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘄𝗮𝘆 𝗶𝗻 𝗡𝗦𝗪 📣 The NSW Government has commissioned independent research into the use of sexual assault counselling records in criminal proceedings. This is an important step but Queensland victim-survivors need immediate protection and QSAN calls for full protection of their records through absolute privilege. No one should have to choose between seeking support to heal and worrying that their most personal conversations with a counsellor could later be scrutinised in court. No rape or sexual violence victim-survivor should require their first conversation with their sexual violence counsellor to be about how their perpetrator likely has rights to access at least some of their confidential counselling notes. The possibility that counselling records may be accessed can deter victim-survivors from engaging with specialist services, limit what they feel safe to disclose, and force them to relive trauma through legal processes that should be focused on pursuing justice.
