Can you help write a different ending for Junie?

History has shown just how Junie’s* life will play out if she doesn’t receive the support she needs to overcome her trauma.

Her mum and dad were always screaming and shouting, there would be loud bangs and chaos every single day.

Luckily, Junie had her fairy tales. Little Red Riding Hood and Cinderella would comfort and protect Junie from the violence, abuse and neglect going on around her.

If Junie doesn’t receive support to overcome her trauma, she may end up dropping out of school. She may turn to substances to try and cope with her terrible childhood. And she’d likely end up right where she started.

Please help to break the cycle of violence for Junie and children just like her.

Your kindness can go towards:

• Our early intervention programs. Early intervention provides support to parents and carers of children like Junie and is the gold-standard approach to keeping children safe from further harm and interrupting the cycle. 

• Supporting a child like Junie through one of our therapeutic trauma recovery programs – this is the key to rebuilding a child’s sense of safety, stability and trust. 

• Helping to expand our Family Violence programs to help children like Junie and their mothers to escape violence and rebuild their lives after the trauma they have experienced.

Please give today so we can give Junie the happily ever after that she deserves.
