National Disability Services (NDS) is interested to meet with disability service providers to learn of their experiences working with Aboriginal communities as part of the NDS Aboriginal Resources and Pathways Project.
The project will identify and promote effective ways for disability services to attract and provide services for Aboriginal people with a disability, their families and carers. The project focuses on Sydney Metro, Illawarra, Shoalhaven and the Far South Coast of NSW, which are the Eora, Tharawal and Yuin Aboriginal Nations.
Local networks of disability services and Aboriginal communities will be established to support disability services connect with Aboriginal people with a disability and their families and carers. Their experiences will inform the development of online resources to assist all services connect with Aboriginal communities.
