Providing safety for LGBTQA people of faith: A guide for the Baptist Union of Victoria
This guide is for faith leaders in Baptist Union of Victoria (BUV) churches – pastors, small group leaders, youth leaders, volunteer helpers and others. This guide creates a broader understanding of the legislation and offers clarity on how the law may operate in practice. It explains why the Change or Suppression (Conversion) Practices Prohibition Act 2021 was developed, what is and is not allowed under the legislation and how faith leaders can continue to work effectively while staying within the law.
