Happy Intersex Awareness Day!

Today we celebrate intersex young people and intersex folk everywhere, in all the beautiful and diverse ways they show up in our communities.

This date marks a historic protest that took place on 26th October 1996 in Boston, USA to defend the rights of intersex people. This day continues to raise awareness of the issues that people born with intersex variations face and works to end shame, stigma and non- consensual medical interventions.

We’re proud to stand with intersex people today and every day!

We stand in solidarity with intersex folks and peer- led organisations working towards ensuring bodily autonomy, informed consent, and inclusive health and human services for intersex communities.

“No More Silence, Prevent Sexual Violence” – Brisbane city landmarks join in to raise awareness tonight!

As Sexual Violence Awareness Month (SVAM) continues, Brisbane city lights help remind us all to challenge attitudes and actions that contribute to sexual violence.

If you are around Brisbane city tonight then you might notice a number of the bridges and landmarks are lit up in the SVAM colour TEAL.

The Story Bridge, Victoria Bridge, Kangaroo Point Bridge and the Reddacliff Place sculptures Donna Marcus: Steam 2006 will all be shining bright in TEAL.

So if you are passing by, have a look, mention it to others, and you might even like to share a pic of it too! It is one more way to break the silence – to take some action to make this topic seen and to support survivor voices.

A big thank you to the students of Wavell SHS for sharing their thoughts, ides and reflections at our stall today!

As part of Mental Health Week, we were invited to connect with students through a “What does consent mean to you?” activity. It was wonderful to see so many thoughtful and insightful contributions.

Conversations like these play an important role in building understanding, respect and safer communities 💙

Zig Zag wants to say a big THANK YOU to Tyla at I Love Linen who organised a very generous donations of luxury 100% French Cotton sheets sets for Zig Zag's End of Year Party. Tyla also dedicated several of the sets to the workers at Zig Zag to thank us for the work we do each day. We couldn't do what we do without our community!

🏳️‍🌈 Happy International Le***an Day! 🧡
Today we celebrate le***an young people and le***an folk everywhere, in all the beautiful and diverse ways they show up in our communities.
We’re proud to stand with le***an people today and every day, and in solidarity with the wider LGBTQ+ community, including our trans and gender diverse friends.
There is strength in showing up for one another, making space for our differences and celebrating people for exactly who they are.

This session is happening tomorrow, and there’s still time to RSVP. 💜

As part of Sexual Violence Awareness Month, we’re inviting parents, carers, family members and other trusted adults to join us for a community session about supporting young people who disclose experiences of sexual violence.

Importantly, the session has been shaped by young people themselves. Young people who have experienced sexual violence shared with us what helped, and what didn’t, when they first told someone. Their insights will be at the heart of the conversation.

You don’t need to have all the answers. This session is about building confidence and understanding how we can respond in ways that help young people feel heard, believed and supported.

Parents, grandparents, aunties, uncles, cousins, neighbours, caregivers and other trusted adults are all welcome.

💜 The session is on tomorrow, so if you’d like to come along, please RSVP as soon as possible today:
📧 [email protected]
📞 (07) 3843 1823
Know someone who might find this useful? Please share it with them.

We’re also continuing to hear from young people about their experiences of disclosure and responses from parents/carers. Young people who would like to contribute can complete our survey here:
