Acknowledgement of Country
Bendigo Community Health Services
acknowledge we live, work and enjoy
Dja Dja Wurrung and Taungurung
Country. We extend our appreciation to the Djaara and Taungurung
peoples. We pay respect to Elders past and present for their continued
holding of memories, traditions, culture and community aspirations. We
recognise sovereignty has never been ceded and express our sorrow for
the personal, spiritual and cultural costs of colonisation and their
lasting impact. May we walk forward together in harmony and the spirit
of healing. It was and always will be Aboriginal land.
We support people to
develop and maintain
their personal, gender,
sexual, cultural
