LGBTIQ+

Carers Tasmania recognises and advocates for individuals of all genders, sexual orientations, and cultural backgrounds. Despite sharing a common theme of caring, we recognise that carers in Tasmania are a diverse group with different beliefs, experiences, and identities.

We respect and value the diversity of carers, their lived and living experiences and recognise that carers are experts in their own lives.

To best serve and advocate for carers in Tasmania, our programs and services are accessible and inclusive to all. We are committed to ensuring everyone feels welcome, supported, and empowered.

By embracing an inclusive approach, we aim to create an environment where carers can thrive and fulfil their caring responsibilities to the best of their abilities.

We value equality.

We acknowledge the importance of equality and pledge to:

• Respecting sexual orientation, gender identity, relationships, and intersex status of all individuals in the LGBTIQ+ community and acknowledging their dignity
  Ensuring that our workplace is a safe and discrimination-free environment for all members of the LGBTIQ+ community
• To realise this, we offer access and fairness by implementing policies, programs, and services that include the LGBTIQ+ community.
  Inclusivity is at the core of our culture.

We take great pride in embracing and celebrating diversity and believe everyone has a place here. Our environment is inclusive and welcoming, where everyone is valued and appreciated. We prioritise creating a space where people can be their authentic selves and affirm their identities, without any pressure to conform to others’ beliefs or values.

This is reflected in our professional behaviour and interactions, as we enable individuals to thrive and feel a sense of belonging.
