Gunawirra is a not-for-profit, member-based organisation working side by side with
Aboriginal young women, men and children from the ages of 0 to 5.
We work at the interface of healing trauma and giving education.
Gunawirra
Gunawirra offers projects and programs that encourage
young Aboriginal mothers and fathers to avoid the dangers
of alcohol, substance abuse, domestic violence and
sexual abuse through every encouragement, self
empowerment in the community, group activities and
individual psychotherapy.
 We work in targeted areas of Sydney inner and outer
suburbs and provide highly specialised programs that
have the immediate purposes of prevention and early
intervention for the protection of the infant, child and
family unit.
 Gunawirra creates projects, programs, booklets in 35
preschools across New South Wales. It provides training,
consultation and emotional support to Aboriginal and non
aboriginal preschool teachers and workers in Aboriginal
community areas.
Gunawirra
Our Vision
Aboriginal children will assume their full and rightful place in Australian society as resilient,
empowered people; aboriginal children will have the kind of early childhood which allows them to
develop to their full potential.
Our Mission
Gunawirra’s works towards a world where respect and dignity of personhood matters.
 Where equality of opportunity matters, regardless of race, color or creed.
 Where wrongs perpetrated are acknowledged but with a focus on redress for the future.
 Where mothers and infants are given a “fair go” so they can do a better job with their kids than
their parents did with them.
 Where the terrible trans-generational cycle of poverty, violence and abuse is broken.
 Where dads lift their heads in dignity, and no man, woman or child need ever be ashamed of who
or what they are.
 Where Aboriginal people of many cultures may find again their spiritual core and cultural base in
a way that gives them pride.
 Our continuous work is the prevention of violence or violation of each Aboriginal’s person-hood.
 We hope as a result of our early intervention, loss of self esteem will be replaced by increasing
confidence, instead of serious disorders we will have increased understanding and self care -
that suicide ideation will be replaced by a pride in self.
 This stands at the center of all our work.
Norma Tracey
MAASW NSWIPP –
CEO and Board Director
“Our continuous work is the prevention of violence
or violation of each Aboriginals person-hood. This
stands at the centre of all our work. We hope as a
result of our early intervention - loss of self
esteem will be replaced by increasing confidence.
Instead of serious disorders we will have
increased understanding and self care and that
suicide ideation will be replaced by a pride in
self.”
“The goal we developed is to break the cycle of
trans-generational trauma and abuse in individual
Aboriginal families and so mitigate and, in some
cases, eliminate the dangers of further abuse and
trauma.”
Norma Tracey with The Governor of NSW - Professor Marie Bashir

 Gunawirra relies on donations and grants to fund 100% of all programs, staffing and day to
day expenses.
 Gunawirra has launched 12 programs which have been designed to give infant, toddler and
preschool Aboriginal families the support and skills, for as long as is needed, to help the
children feel safe, loved and cared for – both at home and at preschool.

Gunawirra's
programs
 Inner Suburbs Project
Mothers with children under 6 months are referred by choice and participate in
Aboriginal art, cooking, baby care and massage, nutrition, photography, DVD
making, leadership in community projects.
 Web site activities
Over 50 preschools with Aboriginal children can access information on the five big
ideas of the our Young Doctor’s Program: health and hygiene; nutrition;
identity; trauma; culture and environment.
 Tom Davis Foundation Camp
Parents and children go on a three day camp from country centres and city
centres, focusing on their children, parenting, getting to enjoy and know each
other.  
 Art Therapy
As a means of healing trauma. Gunawirra has carried out over 100 one hour
interviews with traumatised children in preschools, their parents and
teachers. From this we are creating a program to train preschool teachers in
the support and healing of these children.
 Eingana gardens
Gardens grown in over 30 preschools. Each community designs, builds and tends
a garden with traditional bush tucker and a vegetable patch.
 Strongman Inverell
We employ a young Aboriginal sportsman to act as a role-model and play sports
with the children in the preschool where many children have an absent or
abusive father or a father in jail.

PROGRAMS NEEDING URGENT FUNDING
 $25,000-$30,000 - Young Doctor’s Program

environment. This will sustain our work in giving out culturally aware
material and training to isolated centres for a year.

Funding for one year, includes bus pick up and drop off.
 $5000 - Art Therapy (per school)

SPONSORSHIP OPPORTUNITIES
corporate
 $10,000 Nutritional Program (in four preschools)
Develop a garden of bush and veggies and fruit trees etc. These gardens
are a bit costly because they have to be raised to protect against foxes,
bunny rabbits etc. Also included is herb in a pot for each child to take
home and later report on, usually mint as it can withstand anything.
Cooking day for mums to come and make lunch - this is a great success as
it also involves going grocery shopping.  As most families live on “take-
away” they do not shop or know how to cook basic meals.
Introducing the kids to packed lunches is a great achievement in itself -
also included will be a poster on nutritious food.
 $10,000 Breakfast Program for 1 year (three preschools)
o Fresh fruit for lunchtime and afternoon tea for three preschools.
o These children often turn up having had no food that morning and more often than
not also no dinner the night before.
 $10,000 Camps with Parents (two preschools)
o Camps where the parents accompany the children and they are
taught how to cook healthy, fresh food together. We like to put
three of these on a year and it is so much pleasure for the mothers

Gunawirrappt

  • 1. Gunawirra is a not-for-profit, member-based organisation working side by side with Aboriginal young women, men and children from the ages of 0 to 5. We work at the interface of healing trauma and giving education. Gunawirra
  • 2. Gunawirra offers projects and programs that encourage young Aboriginal mothers and fathers to avoid the dangers of alcohol, substance abuse, domestic violence and sexual abuse through every encouragement, self empowerment in the community, group activities and individual psychotherapy.  We work in targeted areas of Sydney inner and outer suburbs and provide highly specialised programs that have the immediate purposes of prevention and early intervention for the protection of the infant, child and family unit.  Gunawirra creates projects, programs, booklets in 35 preschools across New South Wales. It provides training, consultation and emotional support to Aboriginal and non aboriginal preschool teachers and workers in Aboriginal community areas.
  • 3. Gunawirra Our Vision Aboriginal children will assume their full and rightful place in Australian society as resilient, empowered people; aboriginal children will have the kind of early childhood which allows them to develop to their full potential. Our Mission Gunawirra’s works towards a world where respect and dignity of personhood matters.  Where equality of opportunity matters, regardless of race, color or creed.  Where wrongs perpetrated are acknowledged but with a focus on redress for the future.  Where mothers and infants are given a “fair go” so they can do a better job with their kids than their parents did with them.  Where the terrible trans-generational cycle of poverty, violence and abuse is broken.  Where dads lift their heads in dignity, and no man, woman or child need ever be ashamed of who or what they are.  Where Aboriginal people of many cultures may find again their spiritual core and cultural base in a way that gives them pride.  Our continuous work is the prevention of violence or violation of each Aboriginal’s person-hood.  We hope as a result of our early intervention, loss of self esteem will be replaced by increasing confidence, instead of serious disorders we will have increased understanding and self care - that suicide ideation will be replaced by a pride in self.  This stands at the center of all our work.
  • 4. Norma Tracey MAASW NSWIPP – CEO and Board Director “Our continuous work is the prevention of violence or violation of each Aboriginals person-hood. This stands at the centre of all our work. We hope as a result of our early intervention - loss of self esteem will be replaced by increasing confidence. Instead of serious disorders we will have increased understanding and self care and that suicide ideation will be replaced by a pride in self.” “The goal we developed is to break the cycle of trans-generational trauma and abuse in individual Aboriginal families and so mitigate and, in some cases, eliminate the dangers of further abuse and trauma.” Norma Tracey with The Governor of NSW - Professor Marie Bashir

Gunawirra's programs  Inner Suburbs Project Mothers with children under 6 months are referred by choice and participate in Aboriginal art, cooking, baby care and massage, nutrition, photography, DVD making, leadership in community projects.  Web site activities Over 50 preschools with Aboriginal children can access information on the five big ideas of the our Young Doctor’s Program: health and hygiene; nutrition; identity; trauma; culture and environment.  Tom Davis Foundation Camp Parents and children go on a three day camp from country centres and city centres, focusing on their children, parenting, getting to enjoy and know each other.    Art Therapy As a means of healing trauma. Gunawirra has carried out over 100 one hour interviews with traumatised children in preschools, their parents and teachers. From this we are creating a program to train preschool teachers in the support and healing of these children.  Eingana gardens Gardens grown in over 30 preschools. Each community designs, builds and tends a garden with traditional bush tucker and a vegetable patch.  Strongman Inverell We employ a young Aboriginal sportsman to act as a role-model and play sports with the children in the preschool where many children have an absent or abusive father or a father in jail.

  • 10. SPONSORSHIP OPPORTUNITIES corporate  $10,000 Nutritional Program (in four preschools) Develop a garden of bush and veggies and fruit trees etc. These gardens are a bit costly because they have to be raised to protect against foxes, bunny rabbits etc. Also included is herb in a pot for each child to take home and later report on, usually mint as it can withstand anything. Cooking day for mums to come and make lunch - this is a great success as it also involves going grocery shopping.  As most families live on “take- away” they do not shop or know how to cook basic meals. Introducing the kids to packed lunches is a great achievement in itself - also included will be a poster on nutritious food.  $10,000 Breakfast Program for 1 year (three preschools) o Fresh fruit for lunchtime and afternoon tea for three preschools. o These children often turn up having had no food that morning and more often than not also no dinner the night before.  $10,000 Camps with Parents (two preschools) o Camps where the parents accompany the children and they are taught how to cook healthy, fresh food together. We like to put three of these on a year and it is so much pleasure for the mothers
