Aboriginal children and families are a priority for the Institute.
Earlier this year we launched the Telethon Institute's Strategic Plan - Working Together 2013-2017. At that time, the Institute made a pledge to develop a separate statement around Aboriginal health research.
That statement has now been developed - Working Together: Telethon Institute Commitment to Aboriginal Children and Families 2013-2017.
The Commitment outlines the guiding principles for our work in Aboriginal child health and the priorities to be addressed. We have a proud history of research and advocacy with Aboriginal families and we now seek to draw upon this, and further build partnerships with the community and stakeholders, to address the big issues faced by Aboriginal kids.
