Stolen Generations

The Stolen Generations are Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people who were forcibly removed as children from their families and communities through race-based policies set up by both State and Federal Governments from 1910 to the 1970s.

Intergenerational trauma

If people don’t have the opportunity to heal from past trauma, they may unknowingly pass it on to others. Their children may experience difficulties with attachment, disconnection from their extended families and culture and high levels of stress from family and community members who are dealing with the impacts of trauma.

Community Healing
Community Healing

For Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, healing is a holistic process, which addresses mental, physical, emotional and spiritual needs and involves connections to culture, family and land. Healing works best when solutions are culturally strong, developed and driven at the local level, and led by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.

Sorry Day Social Media Kit

During May, The Healing Foundation will be supporting a number of National Sorry Day activities and running a social media campaign to draw attention to the ongoing importance of Sorry Day, and the pressing contemporary needs of Stolen Generations survivors.

We have created a series of social media posts and Sorry Day 2024 imagery for supporters to use across their own social media channels from the week commencing 13 May (see below).

We’ll also be sharing new videos and other Sorry Day content across our channels during May, using the hashtags #unfinishedbusiness and #bringingthemhome. Please give us a share, like or comment if you like what you see!
