New domestic violence service

The BDVAS-QAHC Outreach Program seeks to provide LGBT people who have or are currently experiencing domestic and family violence, an option to be seen for confidential support within a service environment they are more familiar with.  Although appointments are available at QAHC Brisbane, LGBT people wishing to access the service can also contact BDVAS direct on 3217 2544 for an appointment at another location. 

Workers have highly specialised knowledge about domestic and family violence and work with clients to develop a support and safety plan that they feel comfortable with.  BDVAS recognises that choices to remain in or leave a relationship are complex, and can only be made by the person involved; we will work with whatever choices and reality people experiencing violence are in – safety is our first and only concern.
