Indigenous Initiatives

AMA (WA) has been supporting Indigenous Australians to achieve sustainable health and employment outcomes and help close the gap on Indigenous disadvantage through its Indigenous Initiatives Program for over 15 years. Read more about the program.

Our team of experienced consultants are in a unique position to provide flexible and innovative solutions for Indigenous people to address barriers to employment, improve health outcomes, attain career goals and participate fully in social and economic development.

AMA Indigenous Initiatives programs are tailored to meet the needs of individual job seekers and employers and provide a range of services covering recruitment and retention, pre-employment assistance, aspiration building, vocational training, employment placement, mentoring of job seekers and cultural awareness training.
