This report is about the struggle of many survivors of abuse in care to restore their lives, regain their mana and hold previous and current government of the day, State and faith-based institutions to account for the abuse survivors suffered. It’s about the failures of those institutions to respond to the needs of survivors. This report also looks to the future, to what ‘redress’ should be available to survivors of abuse in care – that is, what is needed to put right the deep harm that has been done to individuals, their whānau and communities through abuse in care. We recognise the term ‘redress’ is unfamiliar to many survivors, and some consider it does not capture what is needed. Some have said the term reminds them of the abuse they suffered. In our report, we have chosen to use the reo Māori terms ‘puretumu torowhānui’ , or holistic redress, as it refers to a wider range of things that redress should include – things that can restore the lives, oranga or wellbeing and mana of survivors.
