Our Reflect Reconciliation Action Plan
PeopleKind Group recognises First Nations peoples as the Traditional Custodians of the lands that make up Australia. As a group of organisations, we pay our respects to First Peoples’ continuous connection to Country and the cultural significance of the lands upon which we operate.
At our core, PeopleKind Group believes in providing equitable outcomes for all people – our clients, our employees, and the people within our scope of influence. This Reflect Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP) formalises our support of equality, and we commit to working with Reconciliation Australia and others to instil a culture of unity and community of acceptance throughout PeopleKind Group.
We’re committed to delivering culturally safe services to all First Nations clients, and to maintaining a culturally safe and inclusive culture for employees. We believe this begins with developing all employees’ understanding and knowledge of First Nations culture, values, and beliefs. To help achieve this, we offer Cultural Awareness Training sessions which are available to all team members.
Through communication, two-way learning practices, and the collaborative creation of culturally responsive initiatives, we commit to delivering this RAP to enact positive change across all organisations and areas of PeopleKind Group.

Warlang (Healthy) – by Joanne Ugle
PeopleKind is at the centre of the organisations that come together.
Joined together.
It’s connecting through being compassionate, respectful, collaborative, resilient, courageous.
Ask yourself, what does it mean to live our values?
We all come together and connect. The dots represent people, clients we work with.
And as we collaborate, we are walking together as well as celebrating the success we see in this company and the clients we work with.
We walk with resilience and courage. And the pillars holding us together, investing in people’s lives as well as the whole company of PeopleKind. – Joanne Ugle, 2023
