A voice of hope for women in WA

Each Monday, Voice of Hope Aboriginal Corporation welcomes up to 40 First Nations women to a healing workshop. It’s a chance to yarn, heal and create connections, with the goal of returning to community strong after prison. 

Voice of Hope embodies an ambition by founder Lorraine Pryor: to provide a wrap-around service for incarcerated women and sistergirls to have ‘hope for when they are released’. It’s a response to Lorraine seeing a need for Aboriginal women-led services in the justice system – services grounded in culture and women’s business.
