Headstart Cultural Safe Space
Traditional Owners
We recognise, respect and embrace the Aboriginal Elders and people of this region as the Traditional Custodians and cultural knowledge holders of this land. We also acknowledge the cultural contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people with disability and reaffirm our vision of a world where every person is welcomed, valued and included.
“You are not alone. Around 12% of our workforce identify as Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islanders.”
