June is a time to celebrate love, identity, and community — but it’s also a time to confront the hard truths that often go unspoken. In this Pride Month episode, we dive into how gender-based violence shows up in LGBTQ+ relationships. We explore the unique barriers faced by queer and trans survivors, how systemic erasure makes it harder to get support, and why inclusive services are a necessity — not a luxury.

With a focus on Canadian resources and realities, this conversation sheds light on the intersections of identity, love, and harm — and why centring LGBTQ+ voices is crucial in GBV work.
