ReachOut’s Senior Digital Content Manager @annie Wylie has put together some guidelines that can help with seeking ‘active’ consent if you are about to engage in any kind of sexual activity. linkedin.com/pulse/seeking-…
Healthy relationships start with feeling respected and safe. It is never okay for someone to do something to you without an enthusiastic and explicit ‘yes’. Under NSW’s new consent laws which came into effect this month, consent must be 'clearly communicated' and 'ongoing'.
We also congratulate @AmandaRishworth on her appointment as Minister for Social Services - together we can help ensure parents are equipped to support and connect with their young people.
Congratulations to @Mark_Butler_MP & @Emma4Dobell on their Federal Ministry appointments - we're excited to continue to work with you to deliver our vision: better mental health and wellbeing for all young people. #auspol
