Disability ACT

Disability ACT works with people with disability, families, carers and friends to create good lives. We also work with business and community organisation to improve the ways that people with disability are part of our community. What we do is based on the vision that “all people with disability, achieve what they want to achieve, live how they choose to live, and are valued as full and equal members of our community".

Disability ACT has a unique governance arrangement through its Strategic Governance Group. The SGG provides advice and strategic direction on the outcomes of government funded services and supports.  This group oversees the implementation of the ACT Government’s key policy on disability: Future Directions: Towards Challenge 2014.
