Port Lincoln Aboriginal Health Service Inc.
The Port Lincoln Aboriginal Health Service (PLAHS) was founded by the local Aboriginal community in 1992 with the assistance of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Commission and the South Australian Health Commission through the National Aboriginal Health Strategy.
The establishment of the service resulted from a number of reports and submissions put to both the Commonwealth and State Government from the mid-1980s onwards.
