Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander Inclusion
We are dedicated to promoting inclusivity, diversity, and equality for the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities we operate in.
We recognize the unique needs and challenges faced by Indigenous Australians living with disability, and we are committed to providing culturally sensitive and respectful support.
Cultural Respect: We acknowledge the rich and diverse cultures of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. We are committed to understanding and respecting the cultural, spiritual, and traditional values that shape the lives of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander folks we support.
Community Engagement: We actively seek to engage with local Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities to gain a better understanding of their unique challenges, aspirations, and needs. This partnership allows us to provide personalised support and respect community knowledge and preferences.
Cultural Competency: Our staff receive training to enhance their cultural competency and understanding of the specific issues faced by Indigenous Australians with disabilities. This ensures that our services are provided in a culturally appropriate manner.
Accountability: We will not stop at words. We will continually review our practices and outcomes of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people we support. We will seek feedback from First Nations people and get better.
