In this compelling episode, Jacob Little, founder of About Time for Justice, shares his extraordinary journey from youth detention through adult maximum‐security prisons and back into the community. He reflects on the cycle of intergenerational trauma sparked by childhood abuse, his time inside Brisbane Boys’ Yard and other institutions, and the pivotal moment when he chose to break the silence. Through marathon running, mental-health support and academic study, Jacob found the strength to heal and now dedicates his life to supporting survivors of institutional abuse. You’ll hear how About Time for Justice evolved from compensation payments into a nationwide organisation offering prison visits, free livestream discussions, NDIS-funded support coordination and legal referrals. Jacob speaks with raw honesty about the challenges of sharing lived experience, the importance of community connection, and his mission to empower fellow survivors to reclaim their lives.
