About the Maruamli Program®

Developed by Aunty Lorraine Peeters, a Gamilaraay and Wayilwun woman and Stolen Generations survivor, the Marumali Program® is based on the Marumali Journey of Healing Model®.

The Marumali Journey of Healing Model® provides a culturally grounded and trauma-informed framework and journey for understanding the impacts of colonisation and the Stolen Generations, including intergenerational trauma and disconnection, and supporting healing and reconnection.

Grounded in lived experience and cultural knowledge, the Model recognises the importance of identity, culture, connection and self-
determination.

The Marumali Program® builds understanding and capacity and supports self-determination, healing, identity, connection and strength for First Nations people, communities and the workers who support them.
