Each year, communities across Australia come together during NAIDOC Week to celebrate and honour the rich history, cultures, and achievements of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. NAIDOC Week is an opportunity for everyone to learn about First Nations histories and cultures, recognise the strength and resilience of the world's oldest continuing living cultures, and connect with local Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities through events and celebrations.
NAIDOC Week is also a time to listen and learn from First Nations peoples as they share their cultural heritage, lived experiences, achievements, and aspirations for the future.
At Micah Projects we are committed to walking alongside First Nations people, communities, and organisations. Through listening, collaborating and amplifying First Nations voices, we continue to work towards meaningful lasting change and justice.
We encourage people to take this opportunity to engage, learn, and celebrate by attending local NAIODC Week events in your community. Micah Projects is proud to be part of the following events celebrating First Nations art, culture, food, language, history, and community. We look forward to connecting with you there.

What We've Learned About Ending Homelessness News
At Micah Projects, we know that ending homelessness isn't about one service or one solution. It takes housing, healthcare, community, evidence, and partnerships working together to help people move from crisis to stability and then thrive. For more than 30 years, we've worked alongside people experiencing homelessness or housing insecurity across Brisbane. These are some of the ideas that continue to guide our work, and the evidence that spurs us forward.

The Missing Piece: Why Connection is Part of Family Care News
We know that healing doesn't happen in isolation, and that trauma, violence, housing instability and poverty often isolate families from the very relationships and opportunities that help people recover and thrive. The Hawthorne Hub links families with services, peers and community, not just professional support, because connection and belonging are vital parts of feeling safe, supported and strong.
