Who We Are

Everyone Feels Valued

At Argyle Housing, we are committed to fostering an inclusive and diverse community where everyone feels valued and respected. Our mission is to create a welcoming environment that embraces the unique backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives of all individuals from the community.

Our Commitment to Diversity

We believe that diversity enriches our community and enhances our ability to serve our residents effectively. Our Diversity and Inclusion Policy ensures that every individual, regardless of their social or professional identity, can reach their full potential. This includes people of different genders, gender identities, ages, ethnicities, cultural backgrounds, sexual orientations, and religious beliefs.

Supporting the LGBTQI+ Community

Argyle Housing is dedicated to supporting the LGBTQI+ community in Australia. We recognise the unique challenges faced by LGBTQI+ individuals and are committed to creating a safe and supportive environment for all. Our efforts include:

Inclusive Policies

We have implemented policies that protect against discrimination based on sexual orientation, gender identity, and intersex status. These policies are in line with federal protections and aim to ensure equality and respect for all.

Community Engagement

We actively engage with LGBTQI+ organisations and participate in events such as the Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras, celebrating diversity and promoting inclusion.

Education and Training

We provide ongoing education and training for our staff to ensure they are equipped to support LGBTQI+ residents effectively. This includes understanding the barriers that still exist for LGBTQI+ individuals and working to address them.

Safe Spaces

We strive to create safe spaces where LGBTQI+ individuals can feel comfortable and supported. This includes providing culturally appropriate housing and services that meet the specific needs of the LGBTQI+ community.

Our Vision for an Inclusive Future

Our vision is to eliminate housing inequity and create communities where everyone, including LGBTQI+ individuals, can thrive. We believe that by embracing diversity and fostering inclusivity, we can build stronger, more resilient communities. We are committed to continuous improvement and welcome feedback from our residents to help us achieve this goal.

Inclusivity in Housing

As a housing provider, Argyle Housing understands the critical role that safe and affordable housing plays in the well-being of individuals and families. We are dedicated to ensuring that our housing services are accessible and welcoming to all, including LGBTQI+ individuals. Our approach includes:

  • Affordable Housing: We provide affordable housing options that cater to the diverse needs of our community, ensuring that everyone has a place to call home.
  • Supportive Services: We offer supportive services that address the unique needs of our residents, including those from the LGBTQI+ community. This includes referrals to resources, counselling, and community programs.
