Who We Are
Moorditj Koort Aboriginal Corporation (MKAC) is a leading Aboriginal-led, not-for-profit organisation committed to improving the health and wellbeing of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples across Western Australia.
Since 2010, we have delivered culturally safe, holistic, and community-driven healthcare that strengthens individuals, families, and communities. Our work is guided by Aboriginal ways of knowing, being, and doing, ensuring our services reflect the values, traditions, and aspirations of the people we serve.
Our Reach and Service Locations
MKAC provides services across three Western Australia Primary Health Networks (PHNs), ensuring that Aboriginal communities in urban, regional, and rural areas have access to quality healthcare. Our main service locations include:
- Parmelia (Kwinana): A primary healthcare hub offering GP services, chronic disease management, social and emotional wellbeing support, and aged care services.
- Midland: A culturally safe general practice (GP) and allied health service centre.
- Armadale (Opening March 2025): A new GP clinic expanding access in the south-east corridor.
- Northam: Servicing Aboriginal communities in the Wheatbelt region with the Tackling Indigenous Smoking and Community Connector services.
Our outreach and mobile programs extend beyond these locations, ensuring remote and vulnerable communities receive the care they need.

Meeting Community Needs
Aboriginal people in Western Australia experience higher rates of preventable health conditions such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and respiratory illness. Many face barriers to accessing timely, culturally appropriate care, leading to poorer health outcomes.
At MKAC, we remove barriers to care by offering:
✔ Culturally secure services led by Aboriginal health professionals.
✔ Affordable and accessible healthcare, including bulk-billed GP visits and mobile services.
✔ Continuity of care, ensuring individuals stay connected to ongoing treatment and support.
✔ Health education and prevention programs, empowering people to take charge of their wellbeing.
By providing culturally safe, community-controlled healthcare, we ensure Aboriginal people have access to trusted, high-quality services that support stronger, healthier lives.
Our Vision for the Future
MKAC envisions a future where Aboriginal healthcare is led by Aboriginal people and where every person has access to the care, support, and knowledge they need to live a healthy, empowered life.
By expanding our services, growing our Aboriginal workforce, and integrating new health solutions, we are building a sustainable, community-led model that will continue to support Aboriginal families for generations to come.
At MKAC, we don’t just provide healthcare—we walk alongside our communities to create real, lasting change.
