National Aged and Community Care Roundtable for Forgotten Australians
National Aged and Community Care Roundtable for Forgotten Australians
The National Aged & Community Care Roundtable for Forgotten Australians for launched their website in April 2023.
Forgotten Australians, coined in 2004, refers to an estimated 500,000 Australians who were separated from their families between the 1940s until the late 1980s and who grew up in orphanages, children’s homes and foster care.
The website was set up “as a resource hub for Forgotten Australians, Care Leavers and persons interested in learning about the experiences of individuals, who as children experienced institutional or out of home ‘care’, as they age, with an emphasis on appropriate and quality aged and community care.”
