Advance Your Advocacy Practice: Advocating for People with a Disability from Cultural and Linguistically Diverse Backgrounds

CALD people with disability, as a cohort, are at higher risk of experiencing violence and abuse when compared to the general population of people with disability. They are also less likely to have access to support.

In this Advance Your Advocacy Practice session, Action on Disability in Ethnic Communities will talk about the challenges and barriers that CALD people face in accessing services, and what advocates can do to help overcome these barriers and meet the needs of people with disability from CALD backgrounds, across all service settings.
