At Spectrum, we strive to create a safe and welcoming space for all.

We support migrants and refugees, through a range of culturally safe services across migration and settlement, family relationships and parenting, youth, employment, aged care, disability, and carer support.

We also know that there are many people among our communities who identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, intersex, queer and asexual – and we are committed to creating a safe and welcoming service for those from the LGBTIQA+ community.

Here’s what we have been doing to make our services inclusive for the LGBTIQA+ community:

• We are a member of the Pride in the North collaborative (PIN),  a consortium of communities and a range of health and community organisations in the outer north of Melbourne who show their support and advance their work in supporting members of the LGBTIQ+ communities.
• We have partnered with Many Coloured Sky, an organisation that supports and empowers those at the margins and intersections of LGBTIQA+ communities to participate fully and equally.
• Our staff have received training to build their capacity to work effectively and with LGBTIQA+ community members
• We were proud to participate in the 2025 Midsumma Pride March along with our Pride in the North friends.

We will continue to find ways to improve our practice in working with queer migrants and refugees.
