- Support and encourage members to manage their own affairs on their own land;
- Support and encourage traditional law, language and culture;
- Build trust and friendship between members and other people;
- Work together with other Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal groups on projects that benefit all; and
- Receive and spend grants from Government and other groups for the benefit of our community.
M.C.A.C. is governed by a fully Indigenous Board which is made up of four female and four male Directors plus a Chairperson of either gender. The Board holds regular meetings to deal with matters and requests that are important to, and will impact upon, the community.
M.C.A.C. works closely together with other community stakeholders and community members to establish projects and services in the community that benefit our members, their families and visitors and other community residents. Some of these projects include our community laundry, improving playgrounds, the purchase of two community busses and working towards upgrading our Oval and Community Cultural and Business Centre.
