Support
As allies, we encourage you to research, follow, share, join, sign-up, advocate, learn, volunteer or donate to the community of organisations who represent, support and advocate for young people and trans and gender diverse communities.
While St Martins and Minus18 are the organisations creating and producing Escape Velocity, we are only a fraction of a wider community of organisations that supports LGBTIQ+ people.
If you are trans or gender diverse, questioning or unsure, these organisations are an excellent resource for you.

Twenty10
Twenty10 works with young (12-25) LGBTQIA+ people in New South Wales. They offer housing, case management, counselling, outpatient and legal clinics alongside social groups, a Drop in space and events throughout the year. They also deliver inclusion and diversity training in schools, businesses and other services and are the state partner for Qlife – Australia’s free phone and web based counselling service for LGBTIQA+ communities.

QLife
QLife provides Australia-wide anonymous, LGBTI peer support and referral for people wanting to talk about a range of issues including sexuality, identity, gender, bodies, feelings or relationships.
QLife services are free and include both telephone and webchat support, delivered by trained LGBTI community members across the country. Our services are for LGBTI individuals, their friends and families, and health professionals in Australia.
Beyond the telephone, QLife offers webchat for people who prefer online interactions or for whom the phone is impractical.
