Types of Workshops Offered
Healing for Stolen Generations
This core workshop is designed specifically for Stolen Generations survivors to help them process their trauma and reconnect with their cultural identity. Key elements include understanding trauma and its long-term effects, grief and loss support tailored to the experiences of survivors, reconnection with culture, language, and traditions, and strategies for self-healing and personal growth.
Community-Based Healing
This workshop is designed for families and communities affected by the Stolen Generations to promote collective healing. It focuses on understanding intergenerational trauma and its impact, restoring cultural connections through storytelling and yarning circles, building stronger family and community ties, and developing support networks for ongoing healing.

This workshop is tailored for Indigenous and non-Indigenous professionals working with Stolen Generations survivors and their families. It provides a deeper understanding of Stolen Generations trauma and how it presents in different settings, culturally safe counselling strategies for supporting survivors, training on best practices in trauma-informed care, and guidance on how to integrate cultural healing principles into their work.
