Why do so many people with disabilities and their families want more than "special" programs?

Recently, a conversation about disability, inclusion and belonging got us reflecting on what many families are really seeking. Often, it's not separate activities or special treatment. It's the opportunity to participate, connect and belong alongside everyone else.
In our latest blog, we explore the evolving conversation around disability, inclusion, language, and why belonging matters.

A big thank you to Beth from Ability Action Australia , Louise from Opel WA and Anna from Bloom Healthcare for sharing their expertise and helping create a collaborative learning experience.
 
When support teams learn together, everyone benefits, especially the participant at the centre of it all. 💙

"Are you ready to yarn with me?" - Don, Helping Solutions NDIS Coordinator

Celebrating 50 years of deadly!

Yesterday morning, our teams across Perth and WA, Melbourne and Cebu got together for a yarn to exchange cultural words and significant facts.

This year’s NAIDOC theme honours the generations who have continued to keep NAIDOC Week alive. This session was an amazing way to honour that work by taking initiative to learn about the country we live and work on, then teach one another.

Since we have a hugely diverse team, it was also opportunity to team build in a way that built genuine connection. Members of our teams shared facts and language from where they’re from (stemming as far as Geraldton and Karratha, Proserpine, the Blue Mountains, Vietnam, Pakistan, Kenya, and the Philippines!)

A few new words we learned included:

👋🏽 Kaya (Noongar for “Hello”)

👨🏾‍🍼 Yaboo (Gia for “Father”)

🏡 Baan (Thai for “house”)

🐍 Wagyl (Noongar for “Rainbow Serpent”)

🫶🏽 Mabuhay (Filipino for “To live”)

🌳 Kaarta Koomba (Noongar for “King’s Park”)

👋🏿 Yaama (Gamilaraay for “Hello”)

During the morning tea, we also spent time learning about the significance of Dreamtime stories and the different types of bush medicines. NAIDOC resources and maps were shared with the teams for further learning, and we all left a little more inspired to learn and share culture with one another. 🖤💛❤️

Thank you to everyone who attended and participated, we’re excited to continue learning and growing together!
