Kalano Community Association

We're an Aboriginal organisation established to meet the needs of the Aboriginal community, its members, and their families in and around Katherine.

Over the past 40+ years we have created and developed effective programs that address shortfalls in housing availability, employment and economic activity, social, community, and health-related programs for our member population.

Kalano Community Association represents the views of its members and Council to the wider community, authorities, and governments on a range of issues affecting Aboriginal people from both cultural and contemporary aspects.

We are committed to ensuring our communities have access to appropriate services in an equitable and culturally sensitive manner, develop and maintain accountability to members and funding providers, and meet our legal and corporate obligations.  

We look to our own community for employment, development and work opportunities, and engage in with communities and members to ensure the direction of the Association is in line with community expressed aspirations.
