Thanks to everyone at the Titjikala community who spoke to CICAYDAS and Office of Royal Commission and Relationships Australia staff on a staggeringly hot day yesterday. A special thanks to the Regional Council for letting us use the Knowledge Centre, Jane at the Arts Centre for organising people to meet, and individuals who talked to us. The Alice Springs CICAYDAS team will be heading to Mutitjulu tomorrow - Thursday 15th December.

Heading home from Arlparra and Ampilatwatja yesterday. After a couple of VERY hot days we caught a little bit of the rain that had bucketed down in and around Alice while we were out.

Had a tough week? Talking about what happened in youth detention or about the child protection system can be hard. If you need support or counselling give Relationships Australia Northern Territory a call on 1800 500 853. You can also contact Danila Dilba Health Service, Central Australian Aboriginal Congress and Anyinginyi Health Service.
