North West Queensland Indigenous Catholic Social Services acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of the land on which we provide our services and their connections to Land, Water and Community. We pay our respect to their Elders, past, present and emerging. We also extend our respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people that live within the areas we operate. We recognise the contributions of all Indigenous and non-Indigenous people in working together to develop an enriched appreciation of cultural heritage we have here in Australia – A country which we all share and live in together.
