National Reconciliation Week is just around the corner, so I've been reflecting on this year's theme, "Be a Voice for Generations", and it got me thinking about legacy. We all have the opportunity to make an impact, leave the world a better place than we found it, and play a part in creating a better future.

About the artwork
Healing and Truth was created by Jasmine Sarin (JS Koori Designs), a proud Kamilaroi and Jerrinja woman from NSW.
Healing and Truth explores the importance of seeking help and being able to feel supported, connected and safe in our healing journey. Staying connected to our communities, country and culture helps us improve our social and emotional wellbeing and feel better.
The central circles represent ReachOut and the services they offer to help us on our journey of healing. As young Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, we are often faced with compounding issues, and it might feel like others won't understand or simply 'don't get it'.
This is where ReachOut can help. Social and Emotional Wellbeing is important for everyone.
