In Dec 2020, QueerAbility launched a Toolkit assisting LGBTQ+ people with disabilities to access the NDIS. In 2021, QueerAbility will be delivering workshops to:
- encourage LGBTQ+ people with disabilities to access the NDIS, get the most out of their NDIS plan and build capacity in self advocacy.
- train service providers across Australia, to enable them to deliver workshops for LGBTQ+ people with disabilities in their state or territory. Here at ACON, we’re committed to working with and uplifting people from our vast and diverse community and we’re excited to have the opportunity to do so with the LGBTQ+ disability community.
