AIMS
The aim of the National Coalition of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Social Workers Association Inc is to bring together Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander social workers as a professional body, to exchange information, ideas, and to network for the benefit of our communities.
OBJECTIVES:
In consultation with our communities, to identify areas of need and find ways to successfully address them through the utilization of community development processes, the skills and expertise found within social work, and by networking with other professional bodies, educational institutions, government and non-government departments and organizations at all levels, to assist in finding a way forward that fits the needs, goals and aspirations of our communities.
