Join us for an online community forum to have your say on the draft National Disability Advocacy Framework 2022-2025.

Disability advocacy helps to protect the rights of people with disability. It supports them to take part in the community and have a say in decisions that affect them.

The Department of Social Services is holding community forums to get feedback on a new draft National Disability Advocacy Framework 2022-2025.

About the Framework

The Framework aims to ensure all people with disability can access effective advocacy services and support in a changing environment.

It is a shared commitment between federal, state and territory governments to improving access and outcomes for people with disability.

Who should attend the forum?

The forum is for people with disability and their families, carers, advocates and other interested stakeholders to talk about and provide input on what is important to improve and include in the new Framework.
