SMART Recovery Australia is expanding its addiction‑support services to better meet the needs of LGBTQIA+ communities, recognising that queer people often face unique challenges that require tailored, culturally safe approaches.
In this Queer Conversation, LOTL speaks with April Long, CEO of SMART Recovery Australia, about why inclusive addiction‑recovery programs matter, how stigma and discrimination impact help‑seeking, and what specialised support can look like for LGBTQIA+ people navigating addiction and recovery.
April reflects on the importance of community‑led solutions, culturally safe practice, and creating pathways that genuinely meet people where they are.
