As the 8th anniversary of Queensland's historic apology in parliament for past forced adoption policies and practices nears, Jigsaw Qld's Forced Adoption Support Service (FASS) Team Leader, Andrea Lynch talks to Jo about two Queensland projects aimed at educating the public about the State's dark adoption history and memorialising it in hope that these policies and practices are never forgotten or repeated. They discuss the memorial plaque located in the foyer of the Royal Brisbane and Women's Hospital and the Without Our Consent - A Queensland Story digital memorial.
