Ungooroo Aboriginal Corporation has worked to empower our Indigenous community since 1994. Based on Wannaruah country, we have built strong community and industry relationships that allow us to assist the Upper Hunter Indigenous community to achieve their vision for the future. We remain the only Indigenous not-for-profit shopfront organisation in Singleton.
We work with our Indigenous community to:
- ensure access to essential services
- improve the health of Indigenous people
- increase skills, training, education and employment
- help our community members to achieve personal and financial goals
- ensure social justice and social equality
- maximise participation in all aspects of community life
- develop and grow sustainable Indigenous businesses.
We work with our broader community to:
- generate respect for the oldest living culture on Earth
- raise awareness of the employment needs of Aboriginal people
- increase training, education and employment opportunities
As a not-for-profit organisation, all income streams generated by Ungooroo Aboriginal Corporation are returned to the Indigenous community through a range of constantly evolving programs and services.
Our key business areas are:
- Cultural and Heritage Site Work
- GP Health Services and Allied Health Services including Integrated Team Care (ITC)
- Business and Employment and Mentoring Services
- Aboriginal Specialist Homelessness Services
- NDIS Social Services
- Permanency Support Program (PSP).
The community as a whole benefits from the work done at Ungooroo. We are here for our community.
