This week’s podcasts on Little Pod of JOY have a community focus! Some of the things tackled this week include LGBTIQ news, telephone counselling and referral services, anger management and women’s violence services, and topical events in a local council!

News and Information for the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Trans and Intersex communities.

Jenet and J-Jon, filling in for David and Sue, interview the amazing Leanne of Switchboard! Switchboard is a telephone counselling, referral and information service to the LGBTIQ community. They also discuss Switchboard’s newest initiative “Out and About” which provides social visits for our community elders.

Anthony, Carlos and Jack continue their spotlight on family violence with a discussion of violence in lesbian relationships and the types of support available to those affected in the community, including guest counsellor Mel Creek.

Macca and Pete are joined by Dale Harriman, mayor of the LaTrobe City Council, to reflect on some inflammatory comments made by a fellow councilor.
