Supporting child survivors: Expert insights shared

TRUE Cairns Sexual Assault Service therapist, Sarah Ayache, presented a professional development session focused on supporting young survivors of childhood sexual abuse for Victim Assist Queensland Cairns (VACQ) staff on Tuesday as part of their 2025 Sexual Violence Awareness Month campaign.

Sarah, a psychotherapist with 20 years of experience working with adults and children affected by complex trauma, shared her expertise on supporting young survivors. Her background includes specialised training in sexual offending and harmful sexualised behaviours in young people, and she formerly lectured at the University of Leeds UK.

The session explored critical topics including barriers faced by child victim survivors, the impact of childhood sexual abuse, attachment challenges, how children adapt to survive, and the psychological impact of grooming.

CSAS provides safe, inclusive support for anyone 12+ affected by sexual violence, regardless of background.

🌟 Strengthening Connections for Young People 🌟

Our team members Alisa and Joy attended the 2025 Collaborative Professional Development Day at Broadbeach Cultural Centre on Wednesday, October 15th. This incredible free event brought schools and youth services together to help strengthen connections, share knowledge, and build brighter futures for young people.

Throughout the day, they engaged with valuable sessions focused on youth support services and resources, training and development, ASD diagnostic challenges and management strategies, gender diversity and building capacity for affirmative care, and understanding how domestic and family violence shapes children’s school attendance.

The event provided exceptional opportunities for professional growth and collaboration.

On Tuesday we celebrated 50 years of pioneering work in sexual and reproductive health with the opening of a new exhibit at the State Library of Queensland!

Her Excellency the Honourable Dr Jeannette Young AC PSM, Governor of Queensland and True Patron joined us to acknowledge the impact of our founders and pioneers and visit the Extraordinary Stories exhibit. It showcases the legacy of breaking barriers and leading the way in reproductive health across Queensland since the early 1970s.

Over afternoon tea, inspiring pioneers and current industry leaders and advocates shared reflections, laughs, and powerful stories of courage and advocacy that continue to shape our sector.

The exhibition is open at the State Library of Queensland until May 2026, it’s worth a visit to see these extraordinary stories firsthand.

True’s Helen and Alisa proudly promoted the True Under 25 STIs project at the 12th Annual CQ Youth Interagency Health Forum. It was inspiring to connect with professionals, community youth advocates, organisations, and government representatives who are all dedicated to supporting young people across Central Queensland. This full-day event brought together valuable insights on health, education, social, and legal matters that impact youth in our region. With many knowledgeable speakers sharing practical tools and resources, plus interactive stalls and displays, the forum created meaningful opportunities to network and build partnerships that will help ensure our young people are inspired, connected, safe, and supported to reach their full potential.

We’re grateful to CQUniversity for providing certificates and CPD points to all attendees, making this professional development opportunity even more valuable for those working in clinical, educational, safeguarding, preventative, and support services.

PALM Workers Wellness Day at Mareeba
Last weekend, True’s Health in My Language (HIML) educators headed to far north Queensland to deliver health information sessions to over fifty to Pacific Australia Labour Mobility (PALM) workers in Mareeba on the Atherton Tablelands. In partnership with Tablelands Sexual Assault Service (TSAS), the Department of Employment and Workplace Relations (DEWR), Pacific Islands Council of Queensland (PICQ) and NIB insurance., we created a day that was equal parts informative and fun! Our sessions covered important topics like sexual health, healthy relationships, and cancer screening, while the festivities featured a spirited coconut scrubbing competition, opportunities to connect with local services, live music, and Pasifika food. It’s days like these that remind us why community health education matters so much.

The 2025 True Symposium was a great success!

We’re so grateful to everyone who joined us for the Advancing Sexual, Reproductive and Women’s Health symposium. The energy from our attendees and the expertise shared by our clinical specialists made this event truly special. We explored evidence-based approaches across contraception, abortion care, menopause, adolescent health, sexual health, and gender-diverse care, with dynamic panel discussions and expert presentations that sparked meaningful conversations.

The opportunity to connect with so many dedicated healthcare professionals reminded us why we do this work. A heartfelt thank you to our Gold Sponsor Theramex Australia and all our sponsors for supporting us to deliver such a high-quality program. Your questions, engagement, and passion for advancing care in this field inspire us. Here’s to continuing these important conversations and building on the connections made!
