How Langford Aboriginal Association (LAA) is Using iyarn
Langford Aboriginal Association Inc. (LAA) is using iyarn as a culturally appropriate tool that enhances community engagement and ensures their programs meet the needs of local participants. LAA, a not-for-profit Aboriginal community-managed organisation, uses iyarn’s platform to capture community sentiment through regular check ins, providing valuable feedback from participants in various programs and events.
By using iyarn, LAA is able to support youth programs, workshops, and local events, including initiatives like Moorditj Moort (Strong Family) Outreach Service and Moorditj Yoka Women’s Group. The platform offers a culturally safe and accessible way for community members to express their thoughts and experiences, empowering LAA to better align their services with the needs of the people they serve.
These regular check-ins allow LAA to track community feedback in real-time, providing insights that inform the ongoing development of their programs. This ensures that the services offered — from Noongar Language Classes to the National Empowerment Program — remain relevant, effective, and impactful in fostering social connection and wellbeing within the community. By integrating iyarn, LAA continues to create a strong foundation for culturally secure and holistic community engagement.
