Bridging Now to Next

National Reconciliation Week (27 May – 3 June) is launched by the observation of National Sorry Day on Monday, 26 May. National Sorry Day is a time for Australia to pause and acknowledge the grief, trauma and loss suffered by the Stolen Generations.

National Reconciliation Week is a time for all Australians to learn about our shared histories, cultures, and achievements, and to explore how each of us can contribute to achieving reconciliation in Australia. This year’s theme, ‘Bridging Now to Next', urges us to look ahead and continue the push forward as past lessons guide us. 

Significantly for The Salvation Army, this year's National Reconciliation Week culminates in the release of the new TSA Stretch Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP) on Monday 2 June (2PM AEST).
