Harrison James

Harrison lives on Gadigal land in the Eora Nation (Sydney).

Harrison is a survivor.  

He is an award-winning activist and co-founder of the acclaimed ‘Your Reference Ain't Relevant' campaign.

He also serves as the Media and Communications Officer for the Grace Tame Foundation.

After being sexually abused by his stepmother from the ages of 13 to 16, Harrison has become driven by his personal experiences and is dedicated to reforming Australia's legal system for Survivors.

His extraordinary journey has been a beacon of hope for countless individuals and his unwavering commitment inspires a safer world for all.
