Anti gay group, Salt Shakers is set to close at the end of this year. What does this mean for the ex gay movement? We chat with Anthony Venn Brown Author, CEO and Founder of Ambassadors & Bridge Builders International who has been on the receiving end of Salt Shakers activity.  He’s currently developing a book about the Ex Gay Movement.  Also on the program is Nathan Despott producer of https://insideexgay.org who further discusses the implications for our community.  Nathan highlighted an upcoming event in Melbourne with Kathy Baldock who is a leading American advocate for LGBTI people of faith:  Details here and Brave Support Network details are here.

Also two days on from the Census that will be remembered for all the wrong reasons – how has the Rainbow community been included/excluded from this important collection of data? We chat to Jacqui Tomlins, a founding member Rainbow Families Council.
