The Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Rocky Community Meetings was initially started by a group of passionate Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, on a volunteer basis. They recognised that something had to be done about the crime and the way our mob were being dealt with at Stocklands Rockhampton and through the Youth Justice system.
As a group we offer safe spaces and a platform for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Community voices to be heard and actioned in a meaningful way. The meetings operate from a Collective Impact Framework which is centred around giving power back to community to make decisions on things which are important to them.
We form our groups on a basis of need and through the voice of the community. Everything we action is a direct result from community wants and needs. We listen to our mobs’ voices and build from the ground up.
