Macca and Nevena are joined live on-air by Kathleen Maltzahn – CEO, Not Alone: Gay Men’s Trauma Information Group: Sexual Assault Services Victoria;
In December 2021, Kathleen Maltzahn participated as a speaker in an online event titled “Gender equality in and out of court: Affirmative consent, restorative justice and sexual assault law reform,” hosted by Gender Equity Victoria and Sexual Assault Services Victoria. This event discussed the Victorian government’s commitment to introducing an affirmative consent model in rape and sexual assault laws, exploring the implications for gender equity, violence prevention practitioners, and victim-survivors of sexual violence.
As of 2024, Maltzahn serves as the Chief Executive Officer of Sexual Assault Services Victoria, a prominent organization dedicated to addressing and preventing sexual assault.
Macca and Kathleen discuss ‘Not Alone’.
Not Alone is a trauma information group for adult gay men who have experienced sexual abuse in childhood.
It is an 8-week online pilot program for 8 – 15 attendees using a secure online platform.
The group offers participants an opportunity to understand how trauma impacts them today and provides trauma information in the context of establishing safety.
It is best suited to people who haven’t received extensive support or information on sexual violence impacts and are seeking a supportive space with other gay men who may have had similar experiences.

This group will be delivered by senior counsellor advocates from three specialist sexual assault services (South East CASA, Sexual Assault & Family Violence Centre & Eastern CASA), and evaluated by SASVic.
A counsellor advocate is someone who has special training in listening and helping people after experiencing sexual assault or abuse. They can also help someone to understand their rights, explore their options, make decisions and to report to police (if that’s what they want to do). They support people no matter how long ago the sexual violence happened.
