Governments must work together to deliver Nationally-consistent access to historical and contemporary records - including births, deaths, and marriages - for #StolenGenerations survivors and their families.

The value of rehab for violent offenders.Of note is Aboriginal offenders did sig better with treatment.Probably no surprise given the lack access to mental health interventions for Aboriginal ppl. The value of selected intervention to high risk cohorts would be an important study
KWY stands with others to raise awareness and to support families who have faced tragedy because of domestic violence. Today we donated $5000.00 dollars to assist the Kemp family buy a headstone for their courageous mother.

Politics has no place in Suicide prevention
Yet it drives every single funding decision
If funding decisions were made based on evidence of suicide risk reduction we would see a very different reality in our Indigenous communities – at Darwin, Northern Territory
Very excited and honoured to be a key stakeholder in the National Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander Early Childhood Strategy. Aunty Muriel Bamblett discussing the co design outcomes

#RaiseTheAge Why does incarceration increase rather than decrease the odds of future criminality? Well, it’s predominantly about the stage of development.
First kids this age don’t fully understand consequences of behaviours in the same way as adults 1/14 – at Brisbane, Queensland
