January 2024

As we approach the end of another eventful year, on behalf of the Members of the Board of the Brotherhood of St. Laurence (BSL), I extend our sincere thanks for your unwavering commitment, dedication and outstanding contribution to BSL and to the people and communities we serve, throughout 2023.

With the Midsumma Festival coming up (Sunday 21 January to Sunday 11 February), there's a number of ways you can get involved, show your support and celebrate the LGBTQIA+ community.

Our Cross Cultural Consultancy was recently Highly Commended in the Vocational Education and Training category at the Victorian Multicultural Awards for Excellence.

BSL will not accept volunteers referred through the Work for the Dole program.

In December, we came together to celebrate 25 years of HIPPY (Home Interaction Program for Parents and Youngsters) in Australia.

We wrapped up the year with our last Town Hall of 2023, straight from our Social Enterprises Warehouse in Kensington.

Our Brotherhood of St. Laurence (BSL) Social Policy Library sources, captures and manages all the information we need – including the history of the work we do.
