Cecilia Smith (née Hatton; 24 March 1911 – 23 December 1980) was an Australian Aboriginal activist. Born in Beaudesert, Queensland, she was originally a domestic worker before moving to Fortitude Valley, Queensland, where she opened an open house residence. She later served as a member of the Federal Council for the Advancement of Aborigines and Torres Strait Islanders, including three years as honorary secretary in the Queensland chapter. She later campaigned on the "yes" side in the 1967 Aboriginal referendum. She died of kidney failure after surgery in Brisbane.
