Domestic & Family Violence
We are seeking urgent support for a young Aboriginal mother and her two young children to return to Country to be with her mother during her final moments of life.
Due to a long history of family and domestic violence, the young mother was previously forced to leave Country to ensure her safety and wellbeing. The person responsible for the violence is now incarcerated, which has created a safe opportunity for her to return home. This return is critically important, not only for her personal healing and safety, but also to allow her and her children to reconnect with family, community, and culture at a time of profound loss.
We are requesting assistance in the form of a flight voucher with Virgin Australia to support travel to this remote community. Due to the location, flight costs are significantly higher than standard routes, with the total cost estimated at approximately $1,200.
