AFI Disability ACT Federal Election Town Hall event

Australia heads to the polls on 3 May in a highly consequential Federal election for people with disability due to the Federal responsibilities for NDIS, income supports, disability employment and more.

Canberrans with disability are around 20% of the ACT’s voters and we approach the election in a time of unprecedented change for people with disability. Changes to the NDIS, the new system of Foundational Supports, the Disability Royal Commission response, along with issues like poverty, health, housing, education, misinformation, and discrimination, mean it’s time to engage and have your say. 

Join our town hall style forum to:

• Hear about disability policy priorities for the next Federal Government including the launch of AFI’s 9 point platform for Federal action on disability
• Listen to people with disability speaking about what these priorities mean on the ground
• Hear from candidates with their responses and reflections.
