Our Vision and Values

The Vision

Leeton and District Local Aboriginal Land Council is committed to:

- caring and working for the cultural, economic and social wellbeing of Traditional Owners of this country;

- all people of the Wiradjuri Nation residing within the Land Council Area;

- people who are affiliated by their relationships to the Wiradjuri Nation and the Leeton and District Aboriginal community;

- and all Aboriginal people who come to us, whatever their circumstances might be. 

We will achieve this through using our knowledge, resources and skills in traditional and contemporary ways for the long-term benefit of our people.
