We ran a mentoring program that pairs LGBTQIA+ youth and young professionals to help mentor and guide the next generation of LGBTQIA+ persons and assist them in a smooth transition into the workplace. This mentoring program provided a forum within which LGBTQIA+ youth could share grievances and issues with experienced mentors in the interests of seeking support. We held numerous networking events across five states and one territory (Queensland, New South Wales, Victoria, Western Australia, South Australia and the Australian Capital Territory), bringing together LGBTQIA+ youth and professionals in an open, accepting and supportive environment where they could safely mingle and share their experiences, as well as hear the experiences of other young LGBTQIA+ professionals and community leaders We conducted fundraising, and entered into contracts, arrangements and understandings with corporate sponsors and community partners to facilitate the above, and to enhance our ability to provide widespread relief for LGBTQIA+ persons in a variety of workplaces.
