Our Work

Picture
Arrernte people come together at the Healing Centre and on country, undertaking activities that promote and support culture, healing and wellbeing. All of what we do interconnects to strengthen our families and our culture. 
Our programs give us focus and resources to work and achieve outcomes as directed by our Elders. All our work holds strong the values and priorities of Arrernte people.

At the Healing Centre Arrernte families come and sit down anytime, it is a place for us to share stories, listen, laugh and work together. We regularly gather to share a meal, celebrate and teach our young people at ‘family nights’, our elders make bush medicine rubs to give to the community who can’t get out bush to collect it themselves. We visit and support our old and sick people who might be in aged care or hospital, we do smoking, and we offer a place for people to come and ask for healing, help or cultural advice.  

A lot of our work is also on country, many families feel like they want more opportunity to access and spend time on their country.  According to Arrernte culture ‘everything comes from the land’.                                                                                                                       
Spending time on country with family is an opportunity to reconnect with land, language, ancestors, responsibilities and relationships.  On country, people strengthen the story lines and connections that are fundamental to the wellbeing of individuals, families and communities and pass these on to the next generation.  On country we are teaching young people about their responsibilities and instilling respect for land, ancestors and family which helps protect people against the stresses and challenges of being in town. These country visits are fundamental to Arrernte wellbeing.
