Each could be part of a national blueprint for healing and recovery that supports survivors to not only survive, but thrive.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From&nbsp;, a survivor-led First Nations grassroots movement creating cultural healing and economic empowerment, to Good Shepherd\u2019s&nbsp;, a national program supporting financial recovery after abuse, this season platforms organisations of all sizes.<br><em>There\u2019s No Place Like Home: Paths to Healing<\/em>&nbsp;was created by FW as part of its ongoing partnership with&nbsp;, a commitment to help end financial abuse and support people on their road to long-term financial independence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe know recovery takes time and that fi nancial security and access to ongoing support can make a real difference as people rebuild their fi nancial independence,\u201d said CommBank Group Customer Advocate, Angela MacMillan, who also features in the series.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe are an investment.
