Healing for our Stolen Generations: Sharing Our Stories

Description

This report is not justice specific but provides useful information on engaging members of the Stolen Generation. They are a high risk group for victimisation and offending as well as being vital to the development of the next generation of the indigenous community. The factors for success in healing responses and policy include: coming together and sharing stories; reconnecting and strengthening cultural identity; trauma informed services and responses; and healing solutions developed by members of the Stolen Generation. The healing process is vital to improve the health, social and emotional wellbeing, workforce participation and community involvement for the next generation.
