Nunkuwarrin Yunti is the foremost community controlled centre in Adelaide, South Australia, providing health care and community support services to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.

Our Name

Our name was adopted from the dialects of the two largest clans in the southern region - Ngarrindjeri and Narungga to represent the community, the services and the spirit in which they are provided. It means 'Working Together' and proclaims our belief of one community sharing a united vision for the future.

This simple belief has seen Nunkuwarrin Yunti at the forefront of initiatives to improve the health, life expectancy and lifestyle prospects for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people. We work with the community, our staff and other organisations to improve and expand our service delivery. 

 

Our Logo

Our logo, designed by Aboriginal Artist Max Mansell, is a pictorial reminder of our name. It represents 'the diversity of Indigenous Australians in colour and culture, and all cultures of the world building bridges of understanding together as one with colourful cultures'.
