Community
Grace’s community is a long story, her family is a part of the Stolen Generation, so she is still connecting back to Country. Her connections are to the Murri people in Queensland, with some ties to the Juru mob. Grace is still learning about her family connections due to removals. She hopes to one day return to country.
