Mallee District Aboriginal Services began in the early 1980s as the Sunraysia District Aboriginal Corporation, a project that began with two workers from a single, shared office.
It later became Mildura Aboriginal Corporation, and in 2013 became Mallee District Aboriginal Services (MDAS), encompassing offices in Swan Hill and Kerang.
MDAS is now recognised as an organisation that is a leader in Koori services, delivering innovative, holistic, person-centred programs.
More than 200 MDAS staff in Mildura, Swan Hill and Kerang now provide services for a potential client population of nearly 5000 people in NSW and Victoria.
