Our Mission

Our Values
Community Control
Without the community, we don't exist. We consult with our community and we listen to them in all aspects of our work and act on their feedback. We support the community with advice to make the best decisions possible for their own health and for the organisation.
Quality
We aim to deliver the best quality services to our patients at all times, complying with all policies and procedures, accreditation and legislative requirements. We encourage our staff to continuously improve and grow
Respect
We respect one another, our partners and our community. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, gender, religion, education, age or disability. We communicate openly and honestly and respect each other's points of view
Centring Aboriginal Voices
Aboriginal people are experts in their own lives and health, and are empowered to take control of their own health. CHAC is where our culture and history meets with western medicine and health services and both are of equal importance and value.
Aboriginal Health Practitioners - Our Centre
Aboriginal Health Practitioners are what sets our sector apart from the mainstream. We centre our systems and processes around the Aboriginal Health Practitioner, who are our 'first port of call' and undertake the planning and coordinating of care for our clients both within our internal clinical team and the broader health sector
