Hello supporters. There is now a law that prevents survivors from telling their stories in the media:

Thousands of Victorian sexual assault survivors have lost their legal right to speak out. In February, new state laws were quietly introduced which silence all sexual assault survivors whose offenders have been found guilty.

As a result of the new laws, these survivors and others are now being forced to return to court at their own expense and inconvenience, to obtain court orders to speak publicly about their cases. This can and is costing survivors thousands of dollars.

Victoria took a step backwards and overnight thousands of Victorians lost the power to share their stories, as and how they choose.

Nina Funnell from #LetUsSpeak has started a legal fund because now, every time a sexual abuse or assault survivor wants to speak out, they will need a court order to be able to tell their story.

We need to tell our stories. Please, support the campaign if you can.

Cheers,

Paul Levey
