The '''Marumali Program''' was designed and established by Stolen Generations survivor [[Lorraine Peeters]], starting with her presentation of the model she had created, the "Marumali Journey of Healing Model", to a conference of mental health professionals at a conference in Sydney in 1999. Her body of work was [[copyright]]ed and subsequently circulated to and used by many organisations to help survivors to heal from specific types of trauma suffered as a result of the removals. Peeters then developed the Marumali Program to train Indigenous counsellors to use her model.<ref>{{cite web |title=About Marumali |website=Marumali |date=3 September 1999 |url=https://marumali.com.au/about-marumali |access-date=1 July 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240630131006/https://marumali.com.au/about-marumali |archive-date=30 June 2024}}</ref> {{as of|June 2020}}, she and her daughter continue to give workshops, both in the community and in prisons. ''Marumali'' is a [[Gamilaroi language|Gamilaroi]] word meaning "to put back together", and she says it relates to the ultimate goal of reconnecting with what has been lost. She continues to advise the Healing Foundation.<ref name=lorraine/>
