Details
The Customer (being the Department of Families, Seniors, Disability Services and Child Safety,) is seeking quotes to provide a First Nations Cultural Advisor to be part of the Capricornia District High Risk Team (HRT), to ensure strengths based, culturally led DFV (Domestic and Family Violence) responses for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples across the service area.

The engagement of an organisation to provide a First Nations Cultural Advisor (FNCA) will enable relevant cases to be reviewed by a First Nations person who can provide tailored advice around the specific needs of the individual, with the consideration of local protocols, languages, and family/kinship groups. This will enable strengthened engagement with, and provision of services to First Nations peoples and their communities.

Provide a First Nations Cultural Advisor (FNCA) to be a core member of the Capricornia District HRT to ensure strengths based, culturally led DFV responses for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.
