How to disclose or report

If you've witnessed or experienced unacceptable or concerning behaviour, we're here to help. Our staff will listen, talk you through options and offer support.

If you've experienced discrimination, violence or threats (such as sexual assault, sexual harassment, racism, and family violence) we can support you to take action. 

Disclosing means telling someone. Reporting means telling someone, but with the expectation that they will do something about it. Whether you disclose or report is entirely up to you.
