CASPA continues to reflect on the contributions that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people make to our great nation.
We recognise today is not a day of celebration for all Australians, and we acknowledge the pain, suffering and emotional trauma of many first nations people that ...began on this day 234 years ago and, for many, still continues today.
We respect the views of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people who consider 26 January as a day of mourning, or a day to mark the survival of their ongoing history, traditions and culture.
CASPA acknowledge and respect First Nations peopleβs as the traditional custodians of this land. We also acknowledge and respect Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders values, strength, resilience and the fundamental role that the worldβs longest surviving culture holds in our nations identity.

The season of giving is ...upon us and CASPA Services have launched their Christmas Appeal asking you to help put a smile on the face of a child or young person in care. Christmas can be a difficult time of the year for children in care, and the Appeal helps put an extra present under their tree. Giving to CASPAβs appeal is a small thing to do that can make a big difference to a child or young person in care. I can assure you it goes such a long way.
Please give today to CASPAβs Christmas Appeal by donating here: https://caspa.org.au/christmas-appeal-2022/

Our NDIS team has recently connected with a remote community in the NT - about 5 hours drive from the nearest city - and provided information on the scheme and CASPA Support Coordination services.
Community member Tessa* moved to CASPA for her Support Coordination, and since then all of ...her NDIS supports have increased resulting in her quality of life improving tremendously.
She is now able to access medical appointments, hydrotherapy, shopping, hair appointments, outings and through this her physical and mental wellbeing has improved significantly.
We are so proud of Tessa* and her achievements and look forward to seeing her thrive.
