It's Mabo Day and we are joining the celebration of a great Australian who played a key role in challenging the nation's legal system. Eddie Koiki Mabo fought for recognition of the rights of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people as the traditional owners of their land. His achievements rightly see him recognised as a huge influence on Australia today. But we still have a long way to go to "close the gap" and improve the lives of all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Australians. Today might mark the end of National Reconciliation Week, but our commitment to working with and supporting Aboriginal communities and individuals in regional South Australia continues throughout the year. #accare #WalkingTogether #NRW2025 #BridgingNowToNext

Today marks the start of National Reconciliation Week 2025 (May 27-June 3), which invites all Australians to learn about our shared histories, cultures and achievements and explore how each of us can contribute to achieving reconciliation in Australia. The 2025 theme, Bridging Now to Next, reflects the ongoing connection between past, present and future. At a time when Australia faces uncertainty in its reconciliation journey, this theme calls on all Australians to step forward together. The 2025 theme artwork created by Kalkadoon woman Bree Buttenshaw, native plants − which are known for regenerating after fire and thriving through adversity − symbolise our collective strength and the possibilities of renewal. This is a time for growth, reflection, and commitment to walking together. Australia’s history of reconciliation is not a linear one, we have made great strides and experienced disappointing setbacks. Twenty-five years ago, Corroboree 2000 brought together Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander and non-Indigenous leaders in a historic call for reconciliation. We continue that work in 2025, inviting all Australians to join us in Bridging Now to Next – building a more united and respectful nation. Visit www.reconciliation.org.au/our-work/national-reconciliation-week/ to learn more. #NRW2025 #BridgingNowToNext #accare #WalkingTogether
Today we observe National Sorry Day. A day to remember and acknowledge the mistreatment of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples who were forcibly removed from their families as part of the Stolen Generations. The theme for this year is "We cannot wait another generation", which highlights the urgency of acting on priority recommendations of the Bringing Them Home report, which was first tabled on May 26, 1997. The report was a landmark truth telling process but sadly, almost 30 years on, a number of the report’s 54 recommendations remain unmet. Remaining Stolen Generations survivors are ageing, and many do not have access to a full and fair redress scheme, or to the records that hold keys to their stories. Together with other organisations, we work with Aboriginal people and communities in regional South Australia to help address the impacts of ongoing trauma. While we are committed to providing culturally-appropriate foster care placements to provide safe homes and positive relationships for children who cannot safely remain with their biological parents, we also work extensively in building stronger families, with a focus on early intervention, developing positive parenting strategies, reunification and walking forward together. But we cannot begin to fix the problems of the present without accepting the truth of our history. Sorry Day asks us to acknowledge the Stolen Generations, and in doing so, reminds us that historical injustice is still an ongoing source of intergenerational trauma for Aboriginal families, communities and people. Learn more this Sorry Day through The Healing Foundation at https://healingfoundation.org.au/ #accare #WalkingTogether #unfinishedbusiness #bringingthemhome

Mark earns a living helping people in need at ac.care’s Mount Gambier Community Centre, which sits in stark contrast to his first visit to the Ferrers Street site several years ago on the brink of homelessness.

Mark’s personal successes are being highlighted as part of National Volunteer Week 2025, with the passion to give back to others now opening new opportunities for his own future as an ac.care employee 💙🧡 Read more 👉 https://accare.org.au/former-homelessness-client-makes-their-mark-at-mount-gambier-community-centre/ #accare #workwithaccare #opportunitiesforcountrypeople

Are you ready to go rainbow tomorrow for the Idahobit: International Day Against LGBT+ Discrimination (IDAHOBIT)? 🌈 Whether you are part of the LGTBQIA+ community or you are an ally – May 17 is a time to be united in the stand against discrimination. Why May 17? This date commemorates the anniversary of the World Health Organisation removing homosexuality from the International Classification of Diseases in 1990. Prior to this, homosexuality was classified globally as a mental illness. More education and action needs to happen to create a world where everyone is safe to be themselves. Stigma and discrimination are unfortunately still prevalent across the world, including here in Australia, where 35pc of LGBTQIA+ Australians have experienced verbal abuse in the past 12 months. We still have work to do. Get involved and explore inclusion at www.idahobit.org.au 💙🧡 #accare
