Our Purpose:

• We create opportunities for people in our communities to live healthier, more connected lives

Our Vision:

• We strive to be a global leader in health, inclusion and HIV responses for all people in our communities

Our Values:

• COMMUNITY – We are made for and by our community. Lived experience is at the heart of what do and guides our decision-making.
• COLLABORATION – We work meaningfully with, and value the expertise of, our communities, colleagues, partners and allies.
• COMPASSION – We acknowledge the stigma, discrimination and inequality our communities face. We hold these experiences with care and compassion as we conduct our work.
• COURAGE – We strive to be courageous in who we are and the ways we work, constantly evolving, and working with integrity to ensure the best possible outcomes for our communities.
• EQUITY – We recognise that improving health outcomes requires varying levels of investment to help rectify structural inequities. We strive to work with an intersectional lens to champion the needs of our communities, recognising the systems that compound diverse and overlapping circumstances.

Work At ACON

Home / Work At ACON

ACON offers a colourful, nurturing and fun workplace. Our staff and volunteers are the foundation for our ongoing effectiveness. We are committed to our employees’ professional development and engagement – ensuring we build our capabilities with people that have the right values, attitudes, skills and knowledge.

Our head office is on Gadigal country in Surry Hills and we also have offices in regional centres on Awabakal country in Newcastle and Bunjalung country in Lismore. We provide our services and programs locally, state-wide and nationally.

We are grounded in the belief that diversity is our strength, our differentiator, and at the core of who we are and what we do. As part of our commitment to inclusion, we encourage applications from people living with HIV, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and LGBTQ people from culturally, linguistically and ethnically diverse, migrant and refugee backgrounds, and LGBTQ people of colour.
