As part of Albany Pride 2026, the Equal Opportunity Commission will be in town and hosting a free community session during Pride Week.
This session will explain your rights around discrimination and harassment, and how to use them in everyday life. It is designed for everyone, whether you are seeking information for yourself, your community, someone you support, or your workplace.
You will learn:
- what your rights are
- when the law applies
- what protections exist
- where to go for help and support
If you have ever wondered how discrimination and harassment laws work in real‑life situations, this session aims to make things clearer.

Bring: Your authentic self, and any questions you might have about discrimination, harassment and equal opportunity law.
What to expect: Mason (he/him) and Jemma (she/they) will give a short talk followed by time for questions. The library is airconditioned, we will be in one of the meeting rooms and there will be chairs set up. You are more than welcome to sit on the floor if you'd prefer. The library is accessible, with accessible facilities and amenities. You can find more information about the library's accessibility on their website: Albany Library Accessibility Information
A quick heads‑up: This session is open to everyone, of all ages, abilities, genders and sexual orientations. We will be talking about discrimination and harassment, which can be sensitive for some people, especially younger attendees (such as those below high school age). We will do our best to create a respectful and inclusive space, and you are always welcome to step out if you need to.
