Acknowledgement of Country

JFA Purple Orange acknowledges the Traditional Owners of Country throughout Australia. We work on many Aboriginal lands, including Kaurna Country, where our head office is located. We extend our respect to all Aboriginal peoples on the lands where we work, live, and learn. We are committed to walking together and building relationships grounded in the self-determination of First Nations peoples.

Recognition of Disability Community

We recognise that JFA Purple Orange exists to advance the rights of people with disability.

All our work aims to create a more inclusive world where people with disability have access to the same opportunities as everyone else.
