The Department of Justice is committed to providing high quality justice, legal and corrective services, information and products that support a just, safe and fair community.
The Innovate Reconciliation Action Plan 2025-2027 (the Plan) embeds the National Closing the Gap Priority Reform Areas and the WA Aboriginal Empowerment Strategy.
We recognise there is a need to continue to adapt our processes, in partnership with others, to create a culturally responsive workforce that can help us to deliver on these commitments.
Our vision for reconciliation is to provide and deliver services in a manner that is culturally responsive, safe and promotes equitable outcomes.
We continue to recognise the unique and diverse cultures within Western Australia’s Aboriginal communities.
For the Department, reconciliation also means acknowledging the past through truth-telling practices and ensuring Aboriginal staff, and those who access our services, feel safe, supported and understood.
Progress of the RAP deliverables will be monitored by a dedicated Steering Committee, with members of our Corporate Executive championing and overseeing implementation of the Plan.
