Anglicare WA's Aboriginal Services program was recently awarded Anglicare Australia's Service of Excellence Award for 2007.

Aboriginal Services is a strategy that Anglicare WA has employed to provide effective delivery of culturally inclusive services with a committment to providing quality services to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders throughout Western Australia. The role of the Manager of Aboriginal Services is to facilitate two functions; direct service delivery and provide corporate consultation within the agency.

Anglicare WA's Aboriginal Services vision is to interface all programs with Aboriginal Terms of Reference (Aboriginal Ways) showing respect of the traditional owners, customs and practices guiding the organisation and individual programs to develop policies and practices that are culturally sensitive, inclusive and safe.
