Confirmation of Aboriginality is required for Membership of MDAS.
Your application to become a member of MDAS must be accompanied by a Confirmation of Aboriginality.
You can apply to MDAS for a Confirmation of Aboriginality (Form 1) or fill in one from the link below.
The Board considers applications where the applicant and their family heritage is known to the Board, and where they meet all eligibility requirements.
In cases of Stolen Generation or disconnection from family, the MDAS Board will consider applications where the applicant provides supporting documentary evidence (from Link-up or other such family history or reunification services) that your family heritage is Indigenous.
If your family heritage is from outside of the Mallee District, you should instead seek your confirmation from a relevant local Indigenous organisation in the area where your family is from, then apply for membership of MDAS.
