Kaine Duroux is a proud Bundjalung and Gumbaynggirr man from Grafton, New South Wales. For the past 13 years, he has lived and worked on Darkinjung Country, where he is raising his three children and contributing to the wellbeing of his local community.

Kaine holds a Certificate IV in Aboriginal Wellbeing and Violence Prevention Work and an Advanced Diploma in Aboriginal Specialist Trauma Counselling. With over six years of experience across drug and alcohol support, mental health, and suicide prevention, he brings both professional expertise and lived experience to his work. This combination allows him to connect deeply with the men he supports, offering understanding grounded in cultural identity, empathy, and real-life experience.

As the Senior Case Manager of The Brothers Healing Program with The Salvation Army, Kaine supports Aboriginal men transitioning back into the community after incarceration. The program focuses on breaking cycles of drug and alcohol misuse, violence, and reoffending through reconnection to culture, Country, and community.

Kaine’s passion lies in creating safe, culturally grounded spaces where men can heal, grow, and rebuild their lives with purpose and pride. His lived experience and leadership continue to inspire positive change and promote holistic, community led healing pathways for Aboriginal men and their families.
