“Safe Schools Coalition is about making LGBTI + same sex attracted, gender diverse & intersex people feel good about being at school…. It’s pretty simple really.”  Roz Ward

The Family Matters team chats with Roz Ward about the amazing work of the Safe Schools Coalition Vic team.

With a recent win at the Globe Awards, taking home MCV Peoples Choice, David asks Roz what he needs to do to bring home the gold next year.

Roz Ward co-founded, developed and currently directs Safe Schools Coalition Victoria (SSCV), the first Australian program to specialise in supporting gender diversity and sexual diversity in schools.  Roz is a brilliant advocate for policy changes to better meet the needs of LGBTI young people in Australia.
