Reconciliation

Reconciliation is our future.

DHS acknowledges and respects Aboriginal peoples as the State’s first peoples and nations and recognises Aboriginal peoples as traditional owners and occupants of the lands and waters in South Australia.

As the office committed to improving the wellbeing and safety of South Australians, we strive to build a workforce and community who are proud and inclusive, and who are champions of South Australia’s many Aboriginal cultures.
