Infinity X career program – supporting LGBTQIA+ individuals with a disability to explore career paths

Do you live with a disability, are you part of the LGBTQIA+ community, and want to take the next step in your career? The Infinity X Career Program is a transformative 6-week career exploration program designed specifically for LGBTQIA+ individuals with disabilities.

In an inclusive and empowering environment, this program addresses the unique strengths and challenges faced by this community in the workforce, empowering you to reclaim your lived experiences, build confidence, and explore new career opportunities.
 

How Infinity X works

Together with guest speakers and facilitators with lived experience, participants will over 6 weeks attend weekly sessions designed to help them gain clarity, build self-confidence, and explore new career possibilities.

Infinity X provides practical tools to help you:

  • Grow confidence in your abilities and skills.
  • Re-claim your lived experience in professional settings
  • Build a network of supportive peers and professionals in the LGBTQIA+ disability communities and beyond.
  • Explore different career paths tailored to your passions.

My expectations were that I would meet like-minded people, receive guidance on how to navigate my professional goals and feel supported as a person. Infinity X smashed these goals.

Why Does Infinity X matter?

LGBTQIA+ Australians often face higher levels of discrimination, exclusion, and mental health challenges compared to their non-LGBTQIA+ peers. These challenges, especially those stemming from social isolation and exclusion, can make it difficult to find fulfilling employment. For LGBTQIA+ individuals with disabilities or neurodivergent experiences, these challenges are even more pronounced.

Role models, peer-to-peer support, and community engagement within the LGBTQIA+ space are crucial. By supporting individuals to build community and engage with role models in a positive, identity-affirming space, Infinity X aims to reduce feelings of isolation while supporting personal growth, resilience, and overall mental health and wellbeing.
