Page "Noongar people" Paragraph 54

The Noongar themselves are tackling their own issues, for example, the Noongar Patrol, which is an Aboriginal Advancement Council initiative.

It was set up to deter Aboriginal young people from offending behaviour and reduce the likelihood of their contact with the criminal justice system.

Most people in Perth would associate this with patrols run in the entertainment hotspot Northbridge.

The patrol uses mediation and negotiation with indigenous youth in an attempt to curb anti-social and offending behaviour of young people who come into the city at night.
