Closing the Gap Target 8 aims to lift the share of First Nations people aged 25–64 in employment to 62 per cent by 2031. The Productivity Commission assesses the target as not on track, and employment is among the outcome areas recorded as worsening.

treatment rate
In 2024–25 First Nations people were more than six times as likely to receive alcohol and other drug treatment as non-Indigenous Australians — 3,125 per 100,000 against 457, age-standardised. The AIHW notes the true figure is likely higher, as most First Nations-specific services do not report to the national collection.

detention rate
First Nations young people were 27 times as likely as non-Indigenous young people to be in detention in 2022–23, and around 84 per cent of those in detention were unsentenced — held before a matter is decided. Target 11, a 30 per cent cut in youth detention by 2031, recorded no change from its baseline in the July 2025 data.

How delivery works
We lead, then you do.
Facilitators run the first sessions in full. Your staff sit in and watch the framework work with your cohort.
The tools are unpacked step by step, with the reasoning behind each one, so nothing depends on charisma.
Your staff take a session with the facilitator in the room. This is where the method transfers.
Observation and feedback against the same checklist we hold ourselves to, not a general impression.
Ongoing access to the facilitator, refreshers, and updated materials as the suite develops.
What participants say
The program made me realise what it’s like to have a dream and what it means to achieve my goals. I built friendship and family, giving me so many opportunities for my career and future. I learnt how to become an adult.
The program transformed my life in many aspects, not just footy. It helped me develop from a kid to an adult. It taught me the importance of giving my best effort with school, my health and playing rugby league.
