Joining Macca, Kenny and Simon on air, Micah Scott is the founder and Chief Executive Officer of Minus18, Australia’s youth-driven charity for LGBTIQ young people. Minus18, which aims to create an Australia free from homophobia and transphobia, has supported more than 60,000 young people since 2011 and provided inclusive support to hundreds of thousands of students.

In 2011 Micah was named finalist for the Victorian Young Australian of the Year, and named the Victorian LGBTIQ Person of the Year in 2017.
