About Us

We are a non-government, not-for-profit Aboriginal
Community Controlled organisation providing health, wellbeing,
and community services for Aboriginal people and families.

Our services take a holistic approach to wellbeing, supporting
physical health, social and emotional wellbeing, and strong
families. This includes health care, child and family support,
and community programs that strengthen connection and
resilience.

Culture and community

As an Aboriginal Community Controlled organisation, we are
governed by an Aboriginal Board and guided by the needs
and voices of our community. Community control ensures our
services reflect the priorities, values, and needs of the people
we serve. It means decisions about programs, services, and
future direction are guided by community voices.

This approach helps create services that are culturally safe, responsive, and grounded in the strength of Aboriginal culture. Feeling safe and respected when accessing health and support services makes a real difference. For many Aboriginal people, mainstream services haven’t always understood culture, community or lived experiences. This can make it harder to reach out for help.

“Culturally safe care means our mob can walk through the door knowing they will be welcomed, listened to, and supported by people who understand. When people feel safe, they’re more likely to access care early, stay connected to services, and take steps to keep themselves and their families strong, healthy and deadly.” Craig Ardler – CEO

To provide effective, holistic, culturally supportive health, wellbeing and family services to our communities, inspiring each individual to nurture and achieve their full potential. By providing quality services and support, building confidence and resilience, improving knowledge and skills and nurturing a deep connection to culture, we aim to create positive and lasting outcomes for our communities
