Our team is honouring National Reconciliation Week by creating space for reflection, truth‑telling, and meaningful conversation. This week invites us to deepen our understanding of the past and strengthen our commitment to a more just future for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.

At Women’s Health Northern Rivers, we’re inviting everyone who visits the centre to pause and reflect by filling in a circle using guided prompts such as:

• What reconciliation commitments have you already made, and what have you learned from them?
• How can these learnings challenge you to take the next step?
• How can your shared values and goals support reconciliation in the wider community?
• What will you commit to individually and collectively - to be All In for reconciliation every day?

These reflections help us move beyond symbolism and into action - listening deeply, learning continuously, and walking alongside First Nations communities with respect and accountability.
