Staff and volunteers are really friendly and easy to talk to and are extremely conscious of not outing anyone, so if your parents wish to check the event is safe before you go or they ring an emergency contact if something happens, staff won't mention the fact that's it's run for queer youth or mention anything about your orientation.

These people do a great job and offer an excellent community for LGBTQ youth and also their straight, but supportive friends. Highly recommended if you live in Melbourne and feel like you're alone in this world. You're not :)
