Acknowledgements

Our Y people are our greatest strength. We are continually inspired by the contributions of our staff and volunteers across the Y. In particular, we wish to acknowledge our CEOs, Presidents, Life Governors, staff, and volunteers in our Member Ys for their hard work and commitment to the important work we do, in support of young people and our communities.

The Y acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of country throughout Australia and their connections to land, sea and community.
We pay our respect to their elders past and present and extend our respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples today.

The Y recognises Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples as the first peoples of this continent and the islands of the
Torres Strait. In doing so, we acknowledge our shared history; recognise the right to self-determination and
the importance of connection to country.

We remain committed to the Uluru Statement from the Heart as a sincere and moving invitation from First Nations Peoples to “walk with us in a movement of the Australian people for a better future”.
