Child and Adolescent Health Service Board statement
The Board of the Child and Adolescent Health Service, strongly support the Uluru Statement from the Heart and the proposed Referendum for Constitutional Recognition of our First Nations People, including a Voice to Parliament.
This referendum provides an opportunity for all Australians to support a fair and just Australia that recognises and values the cultures and histories of its Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples.
The Voice to Parliament will provide a mechanism for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples to have their voices heard and their opinions considered in the decision-making processes that affect them.
Through this process, we will support our organisation in considering this important referendum and ensure that all voices are heard.
