Seed is the lead entity in a collaborative effort to provide career pathways and wraparound support for
Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students from rural and remote communities.
Centred around the First Peoples Health Program, activities include:
-
nationally recognised health training
-
individualised youth mentoring and career guidance
-
community engagement
-
access to further training, internships and employment opportunities through our cross-sector partnerships.
Seed's model is designed to unearth and support future community leaders who can ultimately relieve
the endemic intergenerational poverty and destitution that pervades many remote Indigenous communities.
