Future event
Parenting with an Intellectual Disability
Join us for this important conversation and learn how we can work together to support the rights of parents with an intellectual disability.
Building power from the ground up
The Disability Dialogue brings people together to find common ground and find solutions that work for people with disability.
The Disability Dialogue is a safe space, independent of government, where people with disability, their families, representative organisations, providers, researchers, and the wider community come together to work on things that matter to us.
We are the experts in our own lives, and in the systems and services we use, so our knowledge and ideas are vital to getting them right. We then think about who we can work with to bring these ideas to life.
The Disability Dialogue is led by people with disability. That means we’re the ones in charge, generating ideas, making decisions, and leading the way.

The sensationalist headlines about sex workers and the NDIS misses the point. People with disability are the experts in their own lives – they know what supports work and would make a big difference.
