Resources: supporting culturally safe service delivery to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples
Although there is widespread recognition that Aboriginal Community Controlled Organisations (ACCOs) and Aboriginal-led corporations are usually best placed to provide culturally safe services to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and communities, non-Indigenous organisations often still deliver services to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, either alone or in partnership with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander organisations. They, therefore, also have a responsibility to ensure their services for, and engagements with, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples are culturally safe.
This resource sheet from the Australian Institute of Family Studies (AIFS) provides a list of resources and organisations that can support non-Indigenous practitioners and organisations in the child, family and community sector to provide culturally safe service responses to Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander people, families and communities.
