It's Trans Awareness Week! 🌈 At Gateways, we ce

It's Trans Awareness Week! 🌈 At Gateways, we celebrate trans and gender diversity. We are proud to be working towards a more inclusive and educated workforce to ensure our workforce is leading the way on allyship.

In recent months, 126 team members have attended training workshops empowering us to better support the LGBTQIA+ community. We have a target for all team members to complete the training within 12-18 months.

The training covered crucial aspects of sexuality and gender identity, addressing barriers for the LGBTQIA+ community. We gained tools to build safe and inclusive experiences for our participants and team members and a better understanding of diverse gender experiences.

A big thank you to the team at @minus18youth for sharing their lived-experiences and hosting engaging and informative sessions!

Gateways is further embedding our support through:
• an expansion of our gender-neutral bathrooms
• helping staff to show their allyship by supplying rainbow lanyards, pronoun pins, and pride flag pins
• developing a new diversity and inclusion policy.

Share our vision and help us provide support for children and adults with disabilities and their families, to maximise their quality of life.

We acknowledge the traditional owners and custodians of the land we stand on. We recognise the diverse needs of our community and we ensure our services are inclusive of all children, young people and their families including those who are of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander descent, from culturally and/or linguistically diverse backgrounds, those who identify as LGBTIQ and persons living with disability.
