What happens when a group of ordinary Australians steps up to support a refugee household building a new life in Australia?
That’s the question at the heart of Sky’s the Limit, a moving new episode of Australian Story that shines a spotlight on the Community Refugee Integration and Settlement Program (CRISP) and the life-changing impact of community sponsorship.
The episode follows Naima and Feisal, who arrived in Australia through CRISP, and the Community Supporter Group who welcomed them, walked alongside them and helped them settle into their new community. Through their story, viewers see what happens when welcome becomes more than a value – it becomes action.
For those already involved in community sponsorship, this episode is a celebration of something you’ve helped build. For those discovering CRISP for the first time, it’s a powerful introduction to a different way of supporting refugees: one that puts local communities at the centre of welcome.
