RAP2020 22smBridge Housing is delighted to release our second pdf Innovate Reconciliation Action Plan 2020-2022, (3.14 MB) which sets out how we will work with our Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander tenants, staff and communities to support better outcomes for all.

The RAP 2020-2022 was developed with the help of our Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Tenant Advisory Group (ATTAG) to guide us on our second RAP journey. 

Our new RAP aligns with the start of this year’s National Reconciliation Week and its theme: In This Together. Bridge Housing celebrates National Reconciliation Week as a way to acknowledge the past and to move forward in building relationships and engaging with our Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander tenants, staff and communities.

Sadly, we know that years of dispossession, structural racism and inequality continue to have a huge impact on Australia’s First Peoples, resulting in inter-generational trauma, poverty and inequity. This year’s NRW also comes at a time when COVID-19 is physically distancing and isolating many communities. 

Our Communities Team has developed some exciting tenant engagement activities this week for you to experience while maintaining a safe social distance. Learn more.
