Closing date
The Healing Foundation is a national Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander organisation that partners with communities to address the ongoing trauma caused by actions like the forced removal of children from their families. We work with communities to create a place of safety, providing an environment for Stolen Generations survivors and their families to speak for themselves, tell their own stories, and be in charge of their own healing.
We promote trauma-aware, healing-informed practice to help government, policymakers, and workforces understand their role in intergenerational healing. By addressing unresolved trauma in First Nations communities – trauma that was caused by colonisation and actions like the forced removal of children – we are walking alongside communities on the path to healing. We are governed by a First Nations Board and Executive and guided in our work by our Stolen Generations and Youth Reference Groups. Our work honours our First Nations ancestors who inspire strong spirit, strong culture and strong people in all future generations.
