Over 35 arrests have been made in Victoria over the past year in connection to these attacks, some involving alleged offenders as young as 13. Police have confirmed that fake profiles are being used to lure victims before robbing and assaulting them.
We are calling on both state and federal governments to take coordinated action against the rising tide of homophobia and youth radicalisation.
This important forum will cover:
- What’s been happening in our communities
- How government, police, and community organisations are responding
- What steps individuals can take to keep themselves and others safe
Hosted by: Caleb Hawk, Community Engagement Manager at Thorne Harbour Health
Panel includes:
- LGBTIQA+ Commissioner Joe Ball
- LGBTIQA+ Community Portfolio Manager at Victoria Police Jeremy Oliver
- Prominent Community Member Odus Moore
