Disability Awareness: FREE inclusion training
Event description
One in five Western Australians has a disability, including intellectual, mental health, cognitive, sensory or physical impairment, along with neurological difference. So, regardless of our work or community role, we can assume that most of us will have some interactions with people with a disability as colleagues, clients or stakeholders.
Funded by the Department of Communities through the EMPOWER project and developed in consultation with people with disabilities, this insightful course provides participants with an understanding of different types of disability and looks at how we can go beyond compliance to create places, programs and communities that are universally accessible and celebrate diverse strengths.
Along with developing an understanding of disability and what it means in a modern world, this course develops inclusive attitudes and challenges outdated assumptions.
