Our Vision The vision of the Wiltja Program is
to provide a safe and supportive living
environment in which young people are valued and
nurtured to enable them to develop cross cultural
and other social and living skills and reach
their intellectual, academic and social
potential. The aim of the program, in the main,
is to develop the skills, talents, abilities and
confidence of Anangu students in the mainstream
education and cultural process to enable them to
gain greater self management of their communities
as adults within those communities.
