Three respectful ways to join

Pick whichever suits your situation. None is a lesser option — they’re three equally-honoured ways in.

Quickest

Self-declaration

Confirm your Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander identity yourself.

No documents needed to start.
Community

Community reference

A reference from a recognised community organisation vouches for you.

Good if you’re known to a local org.
Document

Confirmation of Aboriginality

Upload an existing Confirmation of Aboriginality letter.

Best if you already hold one.
