Overview of recovery planning

Recovery planning occurs across multiple levels in collaboration and partnership with departments, agencies and delivery partners including Aboriginal community-controlled organisations (ACCOs) and Traditional Owner corporations (TOCs). ERV has a critical role to ensure planning is integrated and Aboriginal community voices are at the centre of their recovery to support healing and reduce trauma.
