About this service
Non judgemental | Confidential | Anonymous
Switchboard Victoria Inc is a community based not for profit organisation that provides a peer based, volunteer run support service for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer and Intersex (LGBTQI) people and their friends, families and allies.
Switchboard is the Victorian partner in the national telephone and web counselling, information and referral service Qlife. This service is for LGBTQI identifying people and those who have questions or concerns about LGBTQI issues. This includes families, friends, teachers and co workers of LGBTQI people.
Switchboard runs a social support service for older LGBTQI Victorians called Out & About. The service is coordinated in partnership with the National Community Visitors Scheme.
Switchboard also runs the QTIPoC project that is aiming to build greater equity for Queer and Trans Indigenous Peoples and/or People of Colour and People of Faith.
In 2018 Switchboard is establishing a parents and friends of LGBTQI people support group.
