Aboriginal women experience family violence at vastly disproportionate rates. Devastatingly, Aboriginal women are 32x more likely to be hospitalised and 11x more likely to be killed than other women in Australia.

We want to extend a sincere thank you to everyone who has supported our Ramadan fundraiser. This year, with your generous contributions, our annual Ramadan Fundraiser raised a staggering $18,752.18- directly supporting Muslim women and families in Australia experiencing hardship

In dismantling the model minority myth- we must acknowledge these differences within our collective experiences.

Myths of the model minority are rooted in varying “positive” stereotypes about a minority group. More often than not, members of these same groups will attempt to uphold these stereotypes in an attempt to be the “model minority” 🧵
