Today we proudly launched our Innovate Reconciliation Action Plan 🖤💛❤️
Today marked a significant milestone for Creating Links as we officially launched our Innovate Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP), reaffirming our commitment to reconciliation and to building stronger, more respectful relationships with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, communities and organisations.
Our Innovate RAP represents our ongoing commitment to embedding reconciliation into the way we work, lead and engage with the communities we support. It challenges us to listen, learn and take meaningful action, while creating culturally safe, inclusive environments where Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples feel respected, valued and empowered. Through this commitment, we will continue to strengthen partnerships, increase opportunities, celebrate culture and ensure our actions contribute to lasting and meaningful change.
We were honoured to be joined by Uncle John and Aunty Liz, who led a meaningful Smoking Ceremony, sharing culture, knowledge and wisdom while cleansing the space and acknowledging the importance of reconciliation, respect and connection.
The event was attended by our Chairman, Raad Richards, Director and Councillor Chris Cahill, CEO Natalee O'Brien, and many of our dedicated staff, who came together to celebrate this important milestone and reaffirm our shared commitment to walking alongside Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.
As part of our NAIDOC Week celebrations, staff also participated in a boomerang painting activity, providing an opportunity to connect through culture, creativity and storytelling.
At Creating Links, reconciliation is a shared responsibility. We recognise that meaningful change comes through genuine partnerships, accountability and ongoing learning. We are proud to continue our reconciliation journey and remain committed to creating opportunities that strengthen communities, promote equity and contribute to a more inclusive future for all.
Thank you to Uncle John, Aunty Liz, everyone who joined us today, and to all those who continue to support and guide us on this journey.
