Culture. Education. Community.

NASCA provides wrap-around support for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander young people, so they can thrive at school and beyond.

Our young people are smart, talented, strong, and kind. But many face barriers that make it hard to succeed. With the right support, and connection to Culture, they can excel.

That’s why we’re in schools, strengthening Indigenous education, and walking alongside our young people, empowering them to thrive and succeed.

We’re NASCA, a proudly 100% Indigenous-governed and led non-profit organisation.

Our focus on young women

As one of the only organisations in the country with a dedicated program catering to the specific needs of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander young women and girls, we understand the unique challenges they face, as well as the unique opportunities to improve their lives.
