We are a peak service provider for Aboriginal communities in Western NSW.
We are an Indigenous owned and managed organisation, proud to deliver employment, training and community services within the Murdi Paaki region and other parts of NSW. As a viable and independent organisation, we also operate a number of social enterprises in these communities.
How do we continually improve the social fabric and living standards of people living in regional and remote areas of Australia, faced with intergenerational cycles of disadvantage?
We respect the diversity of our communities, and empower each individual, and their community, through increasing access to education, employment and economic prosperity.
