Victoria Police LGBTIQA+ Liaison Officers (LLOs) are a contact point for the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, intersex and queer community.
LLO roles and responsibilities
LLOs work to create mutual trust between police and the LGBTIQA+ community, ensuring we maintain a fair and equal policing service.
LLOs provide:
- discreet, non-judgemental expert advice and help when reporting a crime as well as information about support services
- recommendations to our organisation on the policing needs of LGBTIQA+ people.
Our LLO’s commitment to building relationships and supporting the LGBTIQA+ community includes:
- regular training and communication about current and emerging issues
- considering LGBTIQA+ community perspectives in the review and development of Victoria Police policies, processes, and initiatives
- improving how we respond to incidents such as prejudice motivated crimes
- presentations to social and support groups on the role of LLOs, and how police and the LGBTIQA+ community can work together.
Reporting a crime
If anyone is in danger, a crime is currently occurring, or you need immediate police attendance, please call Triple Zero (000).
If there is no immediate danger, you can report a crime to any police officer in Victoria Police by contacting your local police station. You can also request to speak to an LLO for advice and help to report a crime.
