Aboriginal Affairs NSW - who we are and what do
Our Team
Aboriginal Affairs NSW is proud to be a leader in Aboriginal employment and development. We work with the diverse Aboriginal communities across NSW, and our team reflects this diversity. Over 50% of staff, including senior leadership, identify as Aboriginal.
We have committed to promoting self-determination, policy reform, truth telling and black excellence.
Aboriginal Affairs has seven regional teams that work with Aboriginal people and organisations throughout all areas of NSW, to support, empower, and celebrate local communities. Learn more about our regional teams.
