Over the past 40 years many young Aboriginal people have been given the opportunity to advance their lives and obtain a level of education which has helped them to achieve their goals. In 1967 Aboriginal Children’s Advancement Society (ACAS) opened its first Kirinari Aboriginal Student hostel at Sylvania, New South Wales. This was closely followed by another Kirinari at Garden Suburb, Newcastle. Aboriginal Children’s Advancement Society supports Aboriginal children and youth in the areas of Education and Progress towards a worthwhile and productive future ensuring the fulfilment of ambition, talent and initiative.
