We always suggest reporting violence and crime to police in 000 however many people need support to do so, and many more never step-up to report to anyone. Thats where the AVP steps-in. Click here to access our AVP ONLINE REPORTING SERVICE

There are many additional supports on discrimination and other impacts of homophobia. We suggest accessing a wonderful recently released resource with which AVP is a proud partner: NO TO HOMOPHOBIA
