ACCO Works to Ensure Aboriginal Inclusion Across All Close the Gap Initiatives

Star

Through demonstrated leadership, mutual respect, and collaboration, the Coalition aims to actively contribute to the development and implementation of community-driven strategies aligned with the 5 Priority Reform Areas under Closing the Gap, directly and indirectly addressing long term the 17 Socio economic targets.

We know that services under Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander community control are more beneficial for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.

‍

These services support better outcomes, have a higher representation of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander workforce, and are often preferred over mainstream alternatives.

‍

In Tamworth, we have a strong and sustainable Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander community-controlled sector that consistently provides quality services tailored to meet the unique needs of our Indigenous community.
