Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander support

Support as an Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander carer

We acknowledge the traditional owners of the lands and waters upon which we work, live, and sustain ourselves. This land was never ceded, and we acknowledge that the Tasmanian Aboriginal people are its continuing custodians. We pay our respects to Elders past and present.

Did you know, Care2Serve’s friendly and knowledgeable staff can chat with carers at your service? We want to make sure carers can talk with us where they feel comfortable.

Respite

Have your say

We acknowledge the traditional owners of the lands and waters upon which we work, live, and sustain ourselves. This land was never ceded, and we acknowledge that the Tasmanian Aboriginal people are its continuing custodians. We pay our respects to Elders past and present.

We welcome, support and include carers who may identify as LGBTIQA+, carers with disabilities or from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds. We value and respect the diversity of carers, their lived and living experiences, and recognise that carers are the experts in their own lives.
