Impact
We make a long lasting positive impact on the lives of people and the communities we work with.
We acknowledge Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people as the first inhabitants of the nation and the traditional custodians of the land on which we work and live. We pay our respect to their Elders, past, present and emerging.
We also acknowledge the countless women who have experienced family violence, in particular women from migrant and refugee communities. We recognise the courageous path they have travelled to rebuild their lives, and their experiences continue to inspire and drive our work.
inTouch is an organisation that values and celebrates diversity, and that is respectful of a person’s culture, identity and beliefs.
