A Night We Wont Forget

25 Years of CAAFLU


It was a night we will never forget. After 25 years of unwavering dedication and hard work, the Central Australian Aboriginal Family Legal Unit (CAAFLU) finally had its moment to shine. People traveled from near and far to Alice Springs, where it all began, to celebrate, commemorate, and honor this remarkable milestone alongside staff, board members, and the extraordinary woman at the very heart of it all, our CEO and longest-serving team member, Phee Clarke.



The evening was beautifully guided by MC Catherine Satour, who led us through a compelling journey of highs, lows, and defining moments. A 25-year timeline brought together memories, achievements, and cultural milestones, inviting guests to walk the path that shaped CAAFLU. This immersive experience, crafted with care, highlighted not only key achievements but also the strength, diversity, and resilience that define our family.


One of the most touching highlights was a heartfelt video featuring staff reflections. It sparked laughter, smiles, and yes, tears of joy. Staff shared authentic stories about how working at CAAFLU shaped them, not just professionally, but personally, as women within this community of ours.

A powerful, emotional moment followed, as each staff member expressed their heartfelt thanks to Phynea, bridging gratitude with humor. The refrain echoed in every message, “Phee is just too funny.” But beyond the laughter, there was clear admiration for her unwavering respect, compassion, and inclusivity in treating everyone equally.


Not a single dry eye was left in the room. The night closed with a standing ovation, a profound testament to 25 years of service, leadership, and deep connection. Truly, it was incredible.

We want to sincerely thank everyone who attended the gala for sharing in this milestone celebration. Your presence, support, and energy made the night truly special. Here’s to the next 25 years of CAAFLU. Let’s continue to grow, strengthen our community, and make an even bigger impact together.


A Word From Our CEO

Phee Clarke

"Thanks everyone for travelling from all over the country to celebrate 25 years of CAAFLU in our own back yard. It’s always good to pause and reflect on the incredible work that has been achieved over the years.

Our lawyers, client service officers, and the wider teams in Alice Springs and Tennant Creek have worked tirelessly to keep Aboriginal families strong, and I could not be more proud of their dedication. As we celebrate 25 years of CAAFLU, we also look ahead with excitement. Our next chapter begins with a rebrand that places Aboriginal families at the heart of everything we do."


Tangentyere Community Day

People standing in front of market stalls under awnings.

On 23 September, CAAFLU made Tangentyere Community Day one to remember. We met lots of new faces, shared many conversations, and showed what we’re all about.



The place was buzzing with smile and joy. Free food and coffee flowing, laughter everywhere, and activities that brought people together. Local organisations lit up the space by sharing services and making connections.


Giving Back to the Community

Our merch was a great were a hit! Backpacks flew out, fans kept people cool, and water bottles and key rings never disappoint. The real moment came when folks discovered we just turned 25 years strong. That surprise sparked conversations about what’s driven us all this time.

Jordan, Courtney Kieffer, Amelia, and Peter were front and centre all day. They were there for the chats, the questions, the listening. Their energy showed how much CAAFLU cares and is proud to show up. Events like this matter. They let us be seen. They let people see friendly faces, feel safe, ask for help, and know CAAFLU is always here.

Here’s to many more days like this, building community, celebrating together, doing good stuff.

This morning we welcomed Minister Tanya Plibersek and her lovely team to CAAFLU. Over a cup of tea, we spoke about the importance of practical changes to the Leaving Violence Payment to better support Aboriginal women and children in Central Australia and the Barkly. We are so appreciative of the ongoing support from the Department of Social Services (DSS), who always take the time to meet with us and truly listen. It’s powerful to feel supported by a responsive Federal Government that is committed to walking alongside our communities. ??✨

The Central Australian Aboriginal Family Legal Unit (CAAFLU) is proud to be part of the 2025 Overcoming Indigenous Family Violence Forum on Kombumerri Country, Gold Coast. Our incredible Executive Policy Officer, Jordan Smyth, joined a powerful panel exploring how different states approach coercive control legislation through a First Nations lens. The discussion focused on the importance of educating community about coercive control and how to identify it in all its forms, as well as the unintended risks our aboriginal communities will face if coercive control is criminalised. All panel members advocated for further investment in Early intervention and prevention measures as opposed to another punitive legislative tool. Together, we’re working towards safer, stronger, and culturally informed solutions to end family violence.

Today, on National Sorry Day 2025, we honour the resilience of the Stolen Generations and acknowledge the unfinished journey toward justice. National Sorry Day is a day to acknowledge the strength of Stolen Generations Survivors and reflect on how we can all play a part in the healing process for our people and nation. While this date carries great significance for the Stolen Generations and other Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, it is also commemorated by Australians right around the country. Nearly 30 years after the Bringing Them Home report, only 6% of its recommendations have been fully implemented.

Last week, CAAFLU Legal Practitioner Jean Saker and Customer Service Officer Shirley Erlandson attended the Ending Coercive Control, Family & Domestic Violence Conference in Adelaide. The event focused on South Australia's proposed legislation to criminalise coercive control and featured impactful speakers addressing the systemic impacts of such behaviours. A highlight was guest speaker Natalie, who received a standing ovation after bravely sharing her lived experience of financial and economic abuse, shedding light on the barriers women face when leaving unsafe relationships. An insightful roundtable discussion explored the challenges of working in siloed systems and the importance of cross-agency collaboration to support families experiencing domestic and family violence. CAAFLU also shared its Health Justice Partnership with Congress as an example of effective cross-sector collaboration, delivering holistic and culturally safe support to clients. Well done team!

During last year’s landmark Coronial Inquest into the domestic violence deaths of four Aboriginal women in the Northern Territory, Associate Professor Hannah McGlade, a Kurin Minang woman, stated: “White Australia is playing catch-up with what we as Aboriginal experts have known for a very long time.” The time for change is now. The voices of Aboriginal women and children in the Northern Territory must be heard. Our women must be treated as genuine partners in creating a future free from violence. Government efforts and investments must prioritise self-determination and holistic approaches to Closing the Gap and addressing the systemic issues that continue to harm our people. The importance of self-determination and empowerment in responding to family violence is crucial. Aboriginal communities hold the knowledge, strength, and resilience to address their own challenges. This loss that should never have happened reinforces the need for greater investment in community-led solutions and culturally appropriate services that are led by the Aboriginal community members who understand their own needs. During Ochre Ribbon Week, we honour and remember all Aboriginal people whose lives have been tragically lost to domestic violence. Their loss is felt deeply, and we remain committed to advocating for lives free from violence. As Aboriginal Community Controlled Organisations who are specialists in domestic violence, NAAFLS and CAAFLU stand in solidarity and demand that our voices are heard, and that real change is implemented to prevent further deaths.

CAAFLU is devastated by the first alleged domestic violence-related death of an Aboriginal woman in the NT, occurring just weeks into 2025. We urgently call on the NT Government to fulfill its $180 million election commitment to the NT Domestic, Family, and Sexual Violence (DFSV) sector, as recommended by the Coroner in the inquests into the deaths of Miss Yunupiŋu, Ngeygo Ragurrk, Kumarn Rubuntja, and Kumanjayi Haywood. This funding is crucial to ensuring the safety of Aboriginal women and children. Delays are unacceptable—action is needed now to prevent further loss of life. CAAFLU provides culturally safe legal advice and support to Aboriginal communities across Central Australia and the Barkly Region. For assistance, contact CAAFLU on (08) 8953 6355.

JOINT MEDIA STATEMENT. Central Australian Aboriginal Family Legal Unit - CAAFLU and the North Australian Aboriginal Family Legal Service have issued this joint statement following the death of another Aboriginal woman in the Northern Territory. “An alleged domestic violence assault has claimed the life of yet another Aboriginal woman in the Northern Territory (NT) and our hearts are with her family, friends and the community,” says CAAFLU CEO PC Clarke. NAAFLS CEO Cindy Torrens: “It has been less than two months since the Northern Territory Coroner handed down her report into the deaths of four Aboriginal women. The Coroner found the level of domestic, family and sexual violence to be an “epidemic” across the NT.” The epidemic continues and our women deserve better, say both leaders.

Last week, the NT lowered the age of criminal responsibility to just 10 years old, and we're really worried at CAAFLU. Locking up kids won’t create safer communities—it will only cause more harm. We believe children belong with their families, connected to culture, not behind bars.

The first annual report on the National Plan to End Violence Against Women and Children was tabled in Parliament on 21 August, outlining the progress of Australian governments toward the goals set out in the National Plan. You can read more here: https://www.aph.gov.au/Parliamentary_Business/Tabled_Documents/7093 CAAFLU welcomes the release of this report as an important initial step, but we continue to emphasise the critical requirement for needs-based funding for Aboriginal Community Controlled organisations who are specialists in the Domestic, Family, and Sexual Violence (DFSV) sector.

❌ Community legal centres are at breaking point. Funding shortages and overwhelming demand are forcing centres to turn away over 1,000 people each day and reduce services to local communities across the country. Community legal centres play a crucial role preventing and responding to domestic and family violence. Frontline family law and family violence services make up the largest areas of work for many of the 150+ centres across Australia. The crisis will only worsen until the sector secures a guarantee of ongoing funding ⛔ ⚠️ The 2024 Federal Budget failed to provide the urgent funding boost and long-term funding security the community legal sector desperately needs. With less than a year’s guaranteed funding left, community legal centres are in the most uncertain position we have faced in a decade ? The costs to our communities of the chronic underfunding of community legal centres include ? ◾ More people in prisons and hospitals ◾ Women and children stuck in dangerous situations for longer ◾ People losing their homes and becoming homeless ◾ Families stuck in conflict over custody, child support and family law issues ------------------------------------------ #NTAustralia #AliceSprings #AboriginalLegalService #Law #TennantCreek #NorthernTerritory #Legal #LegalHelp #Women #CentralAustralia #Barkly #BarklyRegion #DomesticViolence #Respect #Women #AccessToJustice #SaveCommunityLegalCentres #FundFrontlineServices #CommunityLaw @communitylegalcentresaus

Painting really helped my mind slow down; I could just sit and paint and not think about other worries." 💬🖼️ We are so proud of their resilience and creativity. 💪❤️ Check out their artwork!
We welcome the Domestic, Family and Sexual Violence commitments from the Northern Territories Labor and CLP parties ahead of next month's election. We hope that both parties will genuinely follow through and come have a yarn with our Aboriginal-led domestic violence legal service for Aboriginal victim-survivors of family, domestic, and sexual violence.

We hope that both parties will genuinely follow through and come have a yarn with our Aboriginal-led domestic violence legal service for Aboriginal victim-survivors of family, domestic, and sexual violence. We have been working tirelessly for 24 years, yet we've only received a one-off payment of less than $100,000 in 2022 from the NT Government. We are hopeful that this funding allocation will change with the recent bipartisan commitment and we will finally be included in funding allocations. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2024-07-31/nt-labor-clp-promise180-million-domestic-violence-funding/104158948

Today Central Australian Aboriginal Family Legal Unit - CAAFLU marched to say NO MORE to domestic, family and sexual violence in our communities. Our CEO, PC Clarke, an Arunda woman had this to say:
Today Central Australian Aboriginal Family Legal Unit - CAAFLU marched to say NO MORE to domestic, family and sexual violence in our communities. Our CEO, PC Clarke, an Arunda woman had this to say: "Aboriginal women and children have been suffering and dying in our communities for decades, yet somehow, it seems like the national news just doesn't hear us. Why? The rates of domestic violence in the Northern Territory are the worst in Australia, and things are not getting better. This is big, bad, wrong and ugly. Its 2024, we only have 7 more years to reach target 13 of Closing the Gap, to reduce all forms of violence against Aboriginal women and children. If the NT Government is serious about reaching this target and protecting Aboriginal women and children, then our culturally safe, family, domestic and sexual violence sector needs to be funded properly."

? We say 'NO MORE' to domestic violence in the NT ? This weekend, thousands will march against the national crisis of domestic, family, and sexual violence. Here in the NT, we have the highest rates of DFSV in the country—and among the highest in the world. Too often, we are silenced and marginalized in national conversations. This Friday, we join these national marches and further call for an immediate injection of funding into the NT's DFSV sector. Wherever you are, get yourself to a march and show your support. ? Mparntwe March Details: - ? 10:30am, Friday 26th July 2024 - Meeting Point: Plaza end of Todd Mall for a silent march in respect of all those we've lost to DFSV (wear purple!) - Gathering: Chamber lawns at 10:45am for smoking ceremony & speeches #nomore24 #nomoreviolence #mparntweagainstviolence #EndViolenceAgainstWomen #enddomesticviolence #wesaynomore
