Acknowledgement of Country

The Healing Foundation acknowledges Country, Custodians and Community of the lands on which we live and work. We also pay our respects to Elders and to Stolen Generations survivors, of the Dreaming and of the here and now. We recognise the ongoing nature of trauma experiences for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and commit each day to survivor-led intergenerational healing.

Gathering strength: Evaluation of the Collective Healing Grants 2022–2026

This evaluation of The Healing Foundation’s Collective Healing Grants shows how culturally led, community-controlled initiatives are supporting Stolen Generations survivors, families and descendants across Australia. Since 2012, the program has distributed more than $6.1 million to 56 organisations for 138 initiatives, enabling healing gatherings, cultural connection, truth-telling and the preservation of survivor stories. The 2022–2026 evaluation found strong evidence that these flexible grants build confidence, belonging, pride, intergenerational understanding and organisational capability, while highlighting the need for sustained, multi-year investment to reach more communities and support the long-term work of Stolen Generations Organisations.
