Indigenous programs
PCYC Queensland’s innovative and collaborative approach with communities allows us to deliver physical, social and wellbeing activities that achieve sustainable outcomes for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples across Queensland. Through our Indigenous Community Sport and Recreation Program (ICSRP), indigenous programs, and our clubs in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities we provide targeted support to build capacity for people and communities who need it most.

Working in consultation with communities to build the capacity and ensure active participation of our First Nations people, our clubs in Aurukun, Mornington Island, Napranum, Palm Island, Woorabinda and Yarrabah work with key local stakeholders to plan, develop and deliver responsive sporting, recreational and cultural activities and programs that each community needs.

To support our vision for reconciliation and a reconciled Australia, PCYC Queensland engaged in community consultations statewide to better understand how we can show leadership in our communities, and what our communities expect from us as partners in reconciliation. Through extensive consultation we were able to capture our intentions and the communities’ expectations, and this year we are excited to launch our inaugural Innovate Reconciliation Action Plan 2021-2024.
