In a display of power and hope, family members and secondary survivors of historic clergy abuse have told their stories in an Australian-first book.
The Quilt of Hope book was launched in Ballarat, a collation of tales from inspirational people who took a stand to make their voices heard.
The book comes following the creation of the Quilt of Hope, a blanket made of 80 hand and machine-stitched panels that are embroidered with messages and symbols.
