Stop Black Deaths in Custody

Grassroots & Family Governed

The Dhadjowa Foundation provides strategic, coordinated and culturally appropriate support for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander families whose loved ones have died in custody.  We exist to stand alongside families impacted by Black deaths in custody, ensuring that their voices, leadership, and lived experiences remain at the centre of all that we do.

More than 30 years on from the Royal Commission into Aboriginal Deaths in Custody in 1991, there have now been at least 600 Black deaths in custody and not a single criminal conviction for those responsible
