CRISIS: Slow Starve for LGBTI National Health Organisations

News & Politics, Society & Culture

The National LGBTI Health Alliance is in crisis with the Federal Government refusing to provide ‘core funding’, placing its future in doubt.

Federal Government tendering processes have pitched HIV organisations AFAO and NAPWHA against each other causing friction and creating animosity within the HIV sector at a time of uncertainty.

Editor of The Stirrer and former JOY 94.9 presenter Doug Pollard joins Dean Beck On The Line to share his insights.  Multiple enquiries to people working within the sector and government have shed little light on the situation, with the final round of funding yet to be finalized.  One thing is certain however, the LGBTI Heath Sector will look very different come June 30, 2016.
