Partner with Yarning Crescent (for NFPs)

Be Part of Something Bigger.

Yarning Crescent is building a national network of trusted partners who are committed to delivering services in ways that are culturally safe, community-led, and accountable to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.

We’re opening the door for a limited time to new partnerships — and this is your chance to step in.

Why Take the Partner Assessment?

Access to community – Build real trust and connection with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities through Yarning Crescent’s network of Elders, ACCOs, ACCHOs, and community leaders.


✅ Cultural credibility – Show funders, government, and your own workforce that you are a safe and respectful organisation to partner with Aboriginal communities.


✅ Tender & funding advantage – Many programs now require genuine Aboriginal partnerships. Being a Yarning Crescent Verified Partner gives you a clear edge.


✅ Capacity building – If you’re not fully ready yet, that’s okay. We’ll walk alongside you to help build the right policies, frameworks, and cultural foundations.


✅ Brand & recognition – Gain the “Yarning Crescent Verified Partner” identity and be seen as a leader in cultural safety and accountability.


✅ Impact & legacy – Be part of something bigger: creating jobs, opportunities, and healing pathways for mob, while strengthening your own organisation’s capacity.
