| Summary Information: | |
| The community at Billiluna has signed two Shared Responsibility Agreements (SRAs) to provide community facilities and healthy activities for young people. The 'Health Activities' SRA facilitates a regular sporting program in Billiluna. Billiluna is also part of the Council of Australian Governments (COAG) trial SRAs.
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.
