At St Joseph's Family Services our vision is:
- For reconciliation to be viewed through open hearts and minds that are committed to embracing reciprocal relationships with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, as we develop our knowledge and culturally safe learning environments.
- To motivate and empower our team to build and maintain purposeful actions that are driven by respect for the Birpai people, whose Land we live, worship, and play on as we progress the spirit of belonging for all.
- Recognising and valuing Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples’ rich traditions, ancestral knowledge, and histories within communities across Australia to deepen understandings, as we grow and unite towards celebrating equality and equity, committing to a strong and connected future.
