The Outreach program aims to improve the sexual health of gay and other same-sex attracted men who use saunas, 'sex-on-premises' venues, gay cruising websites and smart phone applications.
Our trained volunteers visit:
- Saunas and other venues to talk to men and provide sexual health information and resources.
- Gay cruising websites to answer men's sexual health questions.
- Popular cruising smart phone applications, for example Grindr and Scruff.
Upcoming Outreach Training Dates 2015

On Thursday 10 March 2011, VAC staff, Jason and Jill, interviewed Nathan, a volunteer with the Outreach program on our weekly radio show Well, Well, Well on JOY 94.9. In the interview, Nathan explains how outreach work is undertaken online and in sex-on-premises-venues and the types of issues that men in these spaces ask about sexual health.
Listen to the interview at www.joy.org.au
Note: The interview with Nathan starts 7 minutes into the podcast.
