Media Release, 7 April 2020
Today is hard day for Survivors of institutional abuse, their families and their supporters.
While I hold the deepest respect for the High Court, today’s decision is not only a disappointing result for the complainant in this case; it is a disappointing result for Survivors of institutional abuse across Australia.
Many people will struggle to come to terms with today’s decision, and no doubt many people will be reflecting on the ever-present pain of the past.
Melbourne Victims’ Collective: Strategic follow up to Archbishop Comensoli
At the final Melbourne Victims’ Collective meeting of 2019, Clare Leaney presented the following information on IGFF and MVC follow-up to the earlier meeting with Melbourne Archbishop Peter Comensoli.
The presentation was split into a series of observations and recommendations for improvement in supporting survivors of abuse, working with justice and redress processes, increasing organisational transparency, and protecting the vulnerable from this abuse reoccurring.
2020 Welcome from CEO Clare Leaney
As we begin this next decade working with and on behalf of institutional abuse survivors, it’s important to take a moment and reflect on some of our successes and share some of our ideas for 2020 and into the future.
In late 2019 IGFF received a significant surge in funding provided by the Federal Government as a National Redress Scheme Support Service. Our team is to be congratulated for their enormous and often unrecognised hard work and dedication to assisting survivors on their recovery journeys.
This surge funding has meant that 2020 has opened with a huge leap forward in Foundation activity, with some amazing service delivery results up to 30th December 2019 that further support our calls for additional funding.
