Relebogile Setshedi joins us for a candid conversation around LBQTI rights and dignity in the face of social stigma and how that contributes to the intersectional nature of GBV. We also learn about the organisation's efforts in acquiring justice for the community through a recent symposium and how Mzansi can amplify that mission.

As we observe Autism Awareness Month, Autism Care Foundation Social Worker, Lindsay Boyd brings us a conversation about the organisation's message of transitioning from Awareness to Acceptance. Lindsay also speaks on the objective of the organisation to give counselling and support to families with diagnosed cases.
