Our Voice
JOY’s diverse range of presenters bring you the journey’s of our community elders, so that their experiences and life lessons can be shared not only with our diverse GLBTI communities, but the community at large.
Preserving the stories and experiences of our community elders is crucial. The diverse GLBTI communities have faced significant civil rights struggles over the past 60 years, leading to the present day. Our achievements, and our trials, need to be recorded to share with not just current generations, but generations into the future. Our aim is to create awareness through not only the GLBTI communities, but through all communities of Victoria, of the messages and lessons that our elders have to share from the extraordinary life experiences.
With special thanks to Caroline Vogels, Jess Mohi, David Hunt, Dean Beck and Brett Stevenson for their assistance with this project.
JOY 94.9 gratefully acknowledges the support of the Victorian Government and the Public Records Office Victoria for making this project possible
