Uniting Communities respects the enduring spiritual relationship Aboriginal societies have with land and sea and the importance of this relationship to the wellbeing of Aboriginal people, including their languages and customs.

Uniting Communities acknowledges that the past practices and policies of the Church and State has contributed to the trauma still experienced by our First Australians today.

By seeking reconciliation and working in partnership with Aboriginal communities, Uniting Communities will move towards healing, justice, self determination and empowerment for Aboriginal people.

Through our Plan, Uniting Communities will improve opportunities for Aboriginal staff, access to services for Aboriginal people and connections to Aboriginal communities.
