Gay and Lesbian Liaison Officers
South Australia Police provides a visible and responsive police service for all South Australians. In support of the specific needs of the LGBTIQ (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Intersex and Queer) Community, SAPOL has established a network of GLLOs (Gay and Lesbian Liaison Officers).
A GLLO is a police officer or other government employee who has volunteered to undertake this role and received specific training to provide additional support to members of the LGBTIQ community.
The GLLO network has been established to:
- Support the fair and equitable delivery of policing services to the LGBTIQ community.
- Improve community safety by working in partnership with the LGBTIQ community.
- Offer additional support to victims of crime from the LGBTIQ community.
- Contribute to the development of mutual trust between police and LGBTIQ community.
You can make contact with a GLLO through your local police station. Find your local police station
(Please note that there may be occasions when a GLLO is not available. Where this is the case, please ask for a referral to be made to a GLLO and for them to make contact with you.)
