Gender equality in sport
Gender equality and respectful relationship-focused programs in clubs, leagues and communities.
Man Up! Creating Respectful Relationships
Our Man Up! program uses football as a vehicle to support respectful relationships between young people across our funded areas in south-east Melbourne. It aims to promote and support gender inclusion and equality, improve mental health, and ultimately, contribute to safer communities.
The program is funded by Sports and Recreation Victoria and delivered in partnership with Melbourne City Football Club and its charitable arm City in the Community.
Supporting your sporting community
We can tailor or develop programs for other specific sporting clubs and codes, including in relation to healthy relationships, respect, gender equality, and health and wellbeing.
Other specialised programs
Men and dads
We support men and dads through our Support for Fathers project and Men Being Well program, as well as through our general counselling, family dispute resolution, family violence and group programs.
Rehabilitation & reintegration programs
We develop and deliver programs for Victorian correctional cohorts. Our programs and resources consider the different experiences of each individual and the need to build resilience through a strengths-based approach and trauma-informed practice.
Healthy Clubs
Healthy Clubs is designed to embed gender equity principles in clubs and leagues in order to improve the lives of women, girls, and gender diverse people.
