Barbara courageously and openly speaks of the hardships she has endured in her life and how she has managed to recover from the tragedies of her life because she draws support from her spirituality, her family and her community. This story was produced as part of a project called Voices from the Riverlands, in partnership with the Njernda Aboriginal Corporation.
