Western District ACCO Collective (Health)

The Western District ACCO Collective (WDAC) are a strategic representative body of Aboriginal Community Controlled Organisations (ACCOs) across the western districts of Victoria. WDAC are accountable to and prioritise the self-determined needs and aspirations of our western districts’ families, Communities and ACCOs. This submission focuses on the immediate transfer of resources and power, so that ACCOs can grow and enact localised, self-determined, culturally centred, wraparound healthcare in support of the holistic health and wellbeing outcomes for Communities across the Western District. WDAC advocates for legislated, ongoing, stable and equitable funding for all Western District ACCOs.
