EON is pleased to announce that we are a successful recipient in the inaugural round of the Federal Government’s Remote Jobs and Economic Development (RJED) program.
Developed in partnership with First Nations people, RJED aims to provide remote jobseekers with meaningful work under fair pay and conditions—supporting sustainable economic growth in their own communities.
This funding recognises the ripple effects EON creates through community, extending beyond health and wellbeing. By employing local Indigenous staff in Mullewa to deliver our Thriving Communities Program, we’re not only supporting nutrition and healthy lifestyles but also building leadership, capacity, and employment pathways that benefit the entire community.
In addition to RJED support, we’ve secured funding from MEEDAC—a leading Aboriginal employment service in the Mid West—to further strengthen program delivery in Mullewa. It is very rewarding to have such strong First Nations organisations backing our work and reinforcing our shared commitment to long-term community impact.
