Nirrumbuk Aboriginal Corporation is a Broome based Aboriginal community controlled and managed organisation driven by an Aboriginal membership, derived predominantly from the Dampier Peninsular Region, North of Broome. The organisation’s primary objectives are to build the capacity of the Aboriginal community and individuals of the region. Established in 1993 NAC is registered as an Australian Public Benevolent Institution and a not for profit organisation. The NAC membership is driven to build the capacity of our community and its objectives are:
To provide relief from poverty, sickness, suffering, destitution, misfortune, distress, and helplessness for all Aboriginal people in the Kimberley region of Western Australia without discrimination and to:
• Provide Services, programmes and undertakings for the relief of unemployment.
