Expression of Interest for Parent/Carer Support Group

For parents of Transgender and Gender Diverse Young People
Many parents/carers of Transgender and Gender Diverse young people feel alone, isolated and confused.

Being in a regional area, there was previously been no access to any face-to-face peer support groups for parents/carers. The purpose of this support group is to fill this much needed gap in the Bendigo region.

Group Objectives
- Provide a safe, supportive and confidential environment for parents/carers of Transgender and Gender Diverse young people
- To support and assist each other through your young persons journey
- The opportunity to meet other parents/families/carers who are going through a similar experience/journey
- To share and gather information/knowledge and resources on Transgender and Gender Diversity
- To present guest speakers that are relevant and knowledgeable on Transgender and Gender Diversity to the parent support group
