Carers WA believe in the importance of community and that everyone has an equal right to have their voices heard, needs met and be included in society. The projects below aim to educate, inform and raise the capacity of individuals, organisations and government to better understand disability and address gaps to progress towards long-term systemic change.
Through state and federal government funding, Carers WA bring unpaid carers and people with disability together to inform change, improve lives and foster greater understanding.
Coming in 2022, Carers WA, in conjunction with our partners HealthRedesigned and Eduka will co-design, build, test, pilot and distribute an on-line portal enabling people with a lived experience of disability and carers to engage with community.
