The Council of Catholic School Parents is the voice of Catholic school parents and carers. The Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Parent Committee is comprised of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander parent/carer representatives from each of the eleven dioceses across NSW/ACT.

The committee helps to build home, school and community partnerships by providing valuable information and developing resources specifically for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander families. 

The booklet Choosing a Catholic school for your child provides families with information on Catholic schools such as fees, uniforms and support for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children.
