The Connected Beginnings program is a Commonwealth program funded by the Department of Education and the Department of Health and Aged Care.  The Connected Beginnings program is delivered under an innovative collective impact framework.

​

The Connected Beginnings Lutruwita/Tasmania program is delivered by an Aboriginal community-controlled organisation, the Tasmanian Aboriginal Centre.

​

Our team collaborates with the community, organisations and early years services to identify the community’s strengths, skills and resources. 

 

We work together to identify issues affecting their community and co-design solutions to improve school readiness and health outcomes for Aboriginal children aged 0-5 years.

​

Connected Beginnings is making measurable gains for Closing the Gap, helping Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander families get involved in culturally safe early childhood services.
