Talie Star, Singer/Songwriter, Consultant/Speaker specialising in Trauma, Trauma Informed Training (both developing and delivering), Domestic and Family Violence, Homelessness and Disability, March 2024
The Hatchery scholarship program helped me to attend online conferences and workshops on topics of wellbeing and safety that I wouldn’t have been able to access on my own. I am very grateful for this generosity and support…The program connected me with international and national experts in their field. This helped me gain new insights from the latest research, validating my experience and understanding, while also providing some new perspectives. It’s also helped me to use both my lived experience and these learnings to educate others and to advocate for transformation, reform and positive change.”
Joan Smith, March 2024
Kris Miller, Your Town, March 2024
Attending the hatchery scholarship program enabled me to see leaders, and be in a shared space with individuals who are effective role models. I discovered the standard feeling of often times needing to be the catalyst who pushes against the grain throughout their career to ensure meaningful changes occur in their industries.”
