Zammit has a hearing impairment and following a motor vehicle accident
in which she fractured her skull she also now suffers short term memory
loss and tinitis. Marianne wondered if she would ever find full time work
again but with assistance from CRS Australia, who helped Marianne develop her
interview skills, she now has full time secretarial work. She still finds
the time to care for her 19 month old son.

About Waltja
|

|
Waltja Tjutangku Palyapayi Aboriginal Corporation is a community based organisation, working with Aboriginal families in remote Central Australia. Waltja Tjutangku Palyapayi is Luritja for "Doing Good Work for Families" and the name encapsulates the Waltja story. Waltja's agenda is driven by a management committee of traditional Aboriginal women, with the aim of improving outcomes for families. Collectively women want to share their histories, stories and their visions across the Central Desert communities to create one voice for the good of all. The foundation for Waltja's corporate philosophy is the leadership of strong Aboriginal women, a focus on families, and support for community self-management and self-determination and improved services on communities.
