Our reconciliation commitment

Our vision for reconciliation is for all First Nations peoples to achieve better health and wellbeing. We seek to empower First Nations peoples to live healthier lives through self-determination and genuine community collaboration, improving health literacy, and championing equitable, culturally safe health services.

In 2025 we launched our third Reconciliation Action Plan, furthering our commitment to supporting Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in achieving improved health and wellbeing.
