Abstract
The article provides information on a range of collaborative programs that have been developed through the leadership and community advocacy of Aboriginal health workers in partnership with general practitioners and specialist services of Sydney West Area Health Service in an array of health areas in New South Wales. Aboriginal health workers are said to be important to each of these programs. The success of the program relies on the partnership of Aboriginal health workers and Aboriginal community controlled facilities.
