Responsibility | Safety | Care
Our city and community of Wollongong should be a place where all kinds of young people are free to express their identities and access support and services when needed without any threats or fear of others reactions.
So many people, especially those in the LGBTQ+ community and with hidden disabilities, are often ostracised and are forced by others to hide their identities and their struggles. This needs to change, and I will work hard to make sure young people’s voices can be heard. A safer and stronger community starts with us, and I know it is achievable if we work together.
