Currently being established, Zoe Belle Gender Centre (ZBGC) will be a centre to support and improve the health and wellbeing of Victoria’s sex and gender diverse population.

We believe that more needs to be done to improve the physical and psychological welfare and rates of social inclusion of sex and gender diverse people in Victoria. Establishing and funding a community driven and controlled gender centre would be a sensitive and proactive response to this problem. For more information about this cause, please see our fact sheet on the need for a gender centre in Victoria.
