The Alice Springs Partnership for Success is a partnership between the Graham (Polly) Farmer Foundation, the Northern Territory Department of Education, Employment and Training, the Department of Education, Employment and Workplace Relations, Centrecorp Aboriginal Investment Corporation and the local Aboriginal Community.
Project Background

That proposal was presented and discussed widely in the Alice Springs community.
