Our Commitment to Equity, Inclusion and Anti-Racism

At MASP, we believe everyone deserves to be treated with dignity, respect and fairness.

We are committed to creating an inclusive, accessible and welcoming environment for all people, regardless of their age, gender, cultural background, ethnicity, religion, disability, sexual orientation, gender identity, socioeconomic circumstances or life experience. We recognise the strength that diversity brings to our communities and are dedicated to ensuring our services are safe, responsive and accessible to everyone.

MASP has zero tolerance for discrimination, racism, harassment or exclusion in any form. We actively work to challenge racism and promote cultural safety within our organisation, our services and the communities in which we operate. We are committed to fostering understanding, respect and inclusion for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, people from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds, LGBTQIA+ communities, people with disability, and all individuals who may experience barriers to participation and access. 

We strive to remove barriers that prevent people from accessing support by providing accessible information, interpreter and translation services where required, culturally responsive practices, and service environments that are welcoming and inclusive. We continuously seek feedback from the people and communities we serve to improve equity, access and outcomes.

Through our values and actions, MASP is committed to building stronger, more inclusive communities where everyone feels safe, respected, valued and able to participate fully.

If you experience or witness discrimination, racism or unfair treatment in connection with our services, we encourage you to contact us so we can address your concerns promptly and appropriately.
