Summary
Link-Up Queensland has uncovered the stories of over eighty Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women and girls connected to the former Aboriginal Girls Home in West End, helping descendants reclaim their history and reconnect with lost family ties. Operating from 1899 to 1906, the home was part of a colonial system designed to control Indigenous lives, sending young women to work in white households across Queensland. Now, through meticulous archival research and annual Sorry Day gatherings, the project offers a vital path for healing, identity restoration, and community connection — honoring the past while empowering the future.
