"I’ve no doubt, the negative psychological impact of all this homophobia and attempts at (continued) discrimination was significant. It so negatively affected the mental health of the Australian LGBTI population. I thought: "What can I do to make it a bit easier?"

Acknowledgement of Country
QLife acknowledges the Traditional Owners of country throughout Australia, their diversity, histories and knowledge and their continuing connection to lands, waters and communities. We pay our respects to all Australian Indigenous peoples and their cultures, and to Elders of past, present and future generations.
Acknowledgement of our Elders
We pay our respects to those amongst the lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, and intersex communities who have worked to support the improved health and wellbeing of their peers, children, families, friends, and country. We honour the elders in the diverse communities of which we are a part and we celebrate the extraordinary diversity of people's bodies, genders, sexualities, and relationships that they represent.
