About Us
Our Story
ACHRCS was created by Aboriginal community leaders responding to growing homelessness and a lack of culturally safe support for our people. Since 1982, we have walked alongside individuals and families facing homelessness, unsafe housing or barriers to wellbeing.
Our work blends cultural connection, advocacy and practical support to help clients achieve stability, safety and belonging.
