City West Housing is committed to supporting the needs and aspirations of our Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander tenants to access culturally appropriate services and opportunities in their local area.
We aim to ensure these services and opportunities are updated regularly. If you have anything you would like to be listed on this webpage, please email pam.jackson@citywesthousing.com.auÂ
* Daruwiya (pronounced Ta-ru-wi-ya) is the Gadigal word for the land West of Sydney Cove – where City West Housing properties and our office are located. City West Housing is privileged to be on Gadigal Land, and we pay respects to Gadigal Land, Elders and Culture.
