Indigenous Services Mapping Project

The Adelaide Hills Aboriginal Working Party, comprised of a number of interested agencies in this Region, is working together to identify the services available to local aboriginal people.  Following on from the Indigenous Forum held on 15 November 2007, is an initiative involving the production of a diary and online information that will list the indigenous workers and services available to the Adelaide Hills Community.
