Summary

[Taken from the New South Wales publication Connecting Kin: Guide to Records]

Dareton Aboriginal Youth Development Association Inc. Was incorporated in 1987. The name changed to the Dareton Youth Development Aboriginal Corporation in 1990, and it is now known as the Coomballa Youth Development Aboriginal Corporation.

One of the objectives of the Corporation is to provide alternate temporary care for Aboriginal and other children through a foster care program. In 1987 a Family Support Service was established, followed in 1988 by the Foster Care Program. The Foster Care Program cares for up to twelve children at any one time. The Corporation also strives to promote a unified community in which all members live in harmony together regardless of race.
