ATODA’s Reconciliation Action Plan

ATODA has a vision of an ACT community where Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples have good health and wellbeing and have strong communities.  This can, and needs to be, achieved through many ways including the prevention and reduction of harms associated with alcohol, tobacco and other drugs. Reconciliation between Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and other members of the ACT community is important to ATODA as an organisation based on the principles of public health, human rights and social justice.

ATODA presented its Reconciliation Action Plan 2012 at the AGM.
