The Youth Disability Advocacy Network acknowledges the traditional custodians of country on which we work, live, and play; the Whadjuk people of the Noongar Nation.
We respect their continuing connection to land, sea and community and acknowledge that it was never ceded; this always was and always will be Aboriginal land. We pay our respect Elders past and present and celebrate the ongoing contributions of their young people in our communities.
