Acknowledgement of Country
Acknowledgement of Country
At Real Life Choices DSS, Acknowledgement of Country – we acknowledge the Australian Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples as the traditional custodians of the land. We acknowledge the traditional custodians of the lands across the NT & Victoria where our services are located. We also pay our respects to ancestors and Elders, past, present and future. Our organisation is committed to honor and respect Australian Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples’ culture and spiritual relationships to the land, waters and seas.
For many Indigenous people in Australia, land is much more than soil, rocks or minerals. Before colonisation, the reciprocal relationship between people and the land underpinned all other aspects of life for Indigenous people. Today, this relationship with the land remains fundamental to the identity and way of life of many Indigenous people.
