    Summary Information:
    The Yungngora 'Health and Hygiene Facilities' Shared Responsibility Agreement (SRA) was signed in May 2005. The SRA provides the local community with an ablutions block and laundromat to improve the health and hygiene of locals and visitors.

    Shared Responsibility Agreements are agreements between governments and Indigenous communities to provide discretionary funding in return for community obligations. The new arrangements developed from an initiative of the Council of Australian Governments and replace the previous ATSIC system of funding.
