A community-controlled Aboriginal organisation
Established in 1975 to serve, strengthen and empower Bundjalung people. Our authority comes from continuity, lived experience and accountability to community, not from outside approval.
Since 1975, we have existed to serve our people.
We began with housing. Fifty years on, our work has grown. We now manage a working farm, are building a Cultural Centre, and deliver programs that support families when they need it most.
The next step is clear: grow our workforce, prioritising our own community. Our Employment & Training Strategy 2026–2030 sets out how: a workforce of 35 by 2031, traineeships for young people, mentoring for every new team member, and real pathways into work for people who have faced barriers.
Housing is where we started, and it is still our core business.
15 homes owned
Held on our own asset base, so the jobs and services they support don’t disappear when grant funding ends.
17 homes managed
Managed on behalf of the Aboriginal Housing Office, with a target of 80 more over the next five years.
NRSCH Tier 3 registered
A registered community housing provider under the National Regulatory System for Community Housing, working towards SHS accreditation through Te Wana.

What we stand for
To nurture pride, restore cultural connection, and create opportunity for Aboriginal people across housing, healing, education, culture and community development.
Respect for Elders and cultural authority. Self-determination. Accountability to community. Standing united: in order to succeed in our fight for equality and justice, we must stand united.
A brighter future for our future generations: Bundjalung people housed, healthy, working, and strong in culture, on Country.
How we’re organised
Community-elected Board, an Elders Council guiding cultural authority, and an operational team led by the CEO across the five pillars.
