Wherever we are, the LGBTIQA+ community are one. When one hurts, we all hurt. When one is targeted, we are all targeted. We stand in solidarity with Berlin Pride organisers and community following the heart breaking attack this weekend. We have a right to safety, dignity and respect. Pride continues to be a protest against injustice, hatred and violence. We will continue to dance in the street in all our glorious diversity and we will not be silenced. #berlinpride #LGBTI #LGBTIQA #westandwithberlinpride CSD Berlin - Berlin Pride @csd.berlin.pride

Recently we met up with the team at @Lifeline WA to celebrate the launch of DV-Alert's new Working with LGBTQ+ Communities frontline training workshop. 🌈 DV-Alert is a nationally recognised training program, delivered by Lifeline and funded by the Australian Government Department of Social Services (DSS), that equips frontline workers with the skills to recognise, respond to and refer people experiencing domestic and family violence. The Working with LGBTQ+ Communities sessions have been developed by subject-matter experts, practitioners and victim-survivors from across Australia, and will help frontline workers to provide safe, inclusive and informed support to LGBTQ+ people experiencing family and domestic violence. Living Proud is so proud to be delivering these workshops in Western Australia, alongside @lifeline_wa! 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️The sessions are planned for later this year so keep an eye out for details. #lgbtiqa #pride #lgbtiq #fdv

Happy International Non-Binary People's Day! Celebrated on 14 July - exactly midway between International Women's Day (March 8) and International Men's Day (November 19). It is intended to symbolize a safe, inclusive space for gender identities outside the traditional male/female binary. So whether you prefer he/she/they or ze, it is all 'enby' to us and we think you are beautiful! 💛🤍💜🖤
