DocDir and Nonbinary Parenting | Nonbinary Day 2022

Non binary, Trans & Gender Diverse

For International Nonbinary People’s Day, Jack and Jacinta speak with SJ Matthews who is the co-founder of DocDir, an online directory for LGBTIQA+ safe health clinicians all around Australia. They tell us about the importance of accessing affirmative health care for nonbinary people, and how clinicians and LGBTIQA+ people looking for safer health care services can get involved. 

SJ also talks about recently becoming a parent, and what being trans nonbinary is like during this process, and connecting with support groups.

For more info, check out:

DocDir website where you can find and also recommend LGBTIQA+ safe clinicians

You can also email hello@docdir.org.au

For nonbinary parenting support, the following groups have been suggested:

“Non-binary parenting pregnancy and parenting support” group on Facebook

“Non-Bio LGBTQ Parents” group on Facebook

“Trans, Gender Diverse, and Nonbinary Parents – Rainbow Families QLD” group on Facebook

Rise nonbinary peer workshop runs monthly as part of THH’s Peer Ed program
