Our Journey and Values

The Marumali Program® was founded by Aunty Lorraine Peeters, a courageous survivor of the Stolen Generations. This program is a beacon of hope, offering a culturally safe, trauma-informed framework that supports healing for individuals, families, and communities. Grounded in cultural wisdom and lived experiences, Marumali empowers participants to reconnect with their identity and culture, fostering resilience and a sense of belonging. Our goal is to give people and systems with the knowledge and tools needed to provide culturally appropriate support, ensuring a respectful and safe environment for all.
