That was supposed to be the point of the Uluru Statement from the Heart, though. There is literally a quote on their website from the Adelaide dialogue that reads:

Out in the communities, they are the last people to be informed about what is going on. All of a sudden, legislation or something else is happening and they just don't know anything about it.

The fact that there are still Indigenous communities that have literally never heard of the Voice, as has been reported in the last couple of weeks, is a concern. Obviously it's unrealistic to expect everyone will be in the loop but it does feel like a step has been missed somewhere.
