What can I do?

Some ways APS members can start to implement the RAP at a local level:

  • Use the APS Reflection Tool to begin your reconciliation journey
  • Implement cultural protocols at member group and organisational level
  • Support and mentor Indigenous psychology students
  • Consider supervising Indigenous psychology graduates as interns or registrars
  • Develop relationships and partnerships with your local Indigenous community
  • Attend, arrange and/or promote cultural competence training
  • Develop an Indigenous employment strategy in your workplace
  • Recognise and celebrate significant Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander dates.

Please contact the APS RAP team for more information or ideas on how to get started: reconciliation_aps@psychology.org.au
