We are the Aboriginal-controlled peak body for Aboriginal housing in the Northern Territory.
Aboriginal housing in Aboriginal hands
In the Territory, people are 12 times more likely to be homeless than elsewhere in Australia. Almost all of them are Aboriginal. We know housing is linked to many life outcomes, so this is a crisis.
We represent and support 19+ member organisations, and we advocate for more housing – and better housing. Non-profit Aboriginal community-controlled providers of housing or related services – and based in the Northern Territory – are welcome to join us. Together we are strong!
