Stronger ties between police and Indigenous people across the Bourke district in north-west New South Wales are being credited with the halving of domestic violence and malicious damage rates.

A review is underway into NSW Police's Aboriginal Strategic Direction, a document that was formed in 2012 and aimed at engaging more with Aboriginal communities.

The document has four priority areas: ensuring community safety, improving communication and understanding between police and Aboriginal people, keeping Aboriginal people out of the criminal justice system, and diverting them away from harm.

Officers from the Bourke-based Darling River Local Area Command will hold talks in Bourke, Enngonia and Brewarrina this week as part of the review.

Superintendent Greg Moore said he hoped local police would be able to build on the successes achieved since the plan was first formed.

"Those whole-of-community engagement strategies contributed to a significant decrease," Superintendent Moore said.

"Domestic violence was halved, compared to what we normally see for that time period.

"Malicious damage similarly halved, and we do see some green shoots of hope and progress, and no doubt these strategic direction documents play their part in achieving those signs of progress."

But Superintendent Moore said more could be done, and that they planned to have "frank" discussions about what could be improved.

"We're not that thin-skinned, we recognise that there are ways we can improve on things," he said.

"We're certainly happy to have some frank conversations if people think we can do better in other areas; we want to hear about that and similarly if people think we're doing a good job in some areas, that could be expanded.

"For example our engagement programs, we certainly appreciate that feedback."
