01
Culturally secure practice
Every interaction is grounded in respect, deep listening, and the cultural knowledge our team brings to the table.
Cultural approach
Yindyamarra. Respect, gentleness, honour and doing things slowly.
Yindyamarra is a Wiradjuri word. It guides how we work with care, with patience, and with deep regard for the people and communities who choose us.
02
First Nations Yarning Circle
We help lead a national circle of Aboriginal NDIS providers driving sector-wide reform from community up.
03
Self-determination
Aboriginal participants and families are the experts on their own lives. We coordinate, we don't decide.
04
Specialist complex care
Multi-agency, multi-disciplinary support for participants other services find too hard. Cultural safety makes it possible.
Who we are
Aboriginal-owned, community-led, and built on Yindyamarra.
Yindyamarra Disability Services is an Aboriginal-owned organisation who specialises in culturally safe and person-centred Support Coordination and Specialist Support Coordination.
We are passionate about supporting the community and parents with a disability, people with intellectual disability, adults and children with autism, and adults and children with complex forensic and high medical support needs across NSW.
Most NDIS services were not designed with Aboriginal people in mind. We exist to change that from the language we use in plans, to the providers we connect, to the way we sit with families through hard decisions. Through the First Nations Yarning Circle we share what we learn, advocate for structural change, and build a stronger Aboriginal-led disability workforce.
