Over recent years, there has been growing awareness around Australia of coercive control as a distinct aspect of domestic, family and sexual violence, characterised by a pattern of controlling and manipulative behaviours that erode the freedom, autonomy and human rights of those subjected to it.

LGBTQ+ people impacted by sexual, domestic and family violence (SDFV) from across Australia will now have access to relevant, culturally appropriate and state-specific information and resources with the national rollout of the digital support hub, Say It Out Loud.
