On-Country Pathways is an Indigenous owned and operated not for profit organisation based in the New South Wales/Victoria border community of Albury Wodonga.

We deliver employment and career pathway programs for First Nations people aged 15 to 24-years-old.

Our programs are free for participants and mentoring is a key component.

On-Country Pathways has a strong commitment to child safety, which is detailed in our Child Safety and Wellbeing Policy.

We champion cultural safety, and we have a zero tolerance towards abuse and exploitation of children and young people. As a child safe organisation, we are committed to adopting and applying the national child safe principles.

We started out in 2022 with a focus on the construction industry and related trades. We now offer programs across all industry sectors.
