"Plastic can be an essential accessibility tool for people with #disability." #a11y abc.net.au/news/2022-08-07/p…

Dion Galea realised they were trans after watching an online video by an American Deaf trans activist. They felt like they were staring into a mirror. They're now working to spread awareness to the deaf community. Dion shares three things they know about: identity. #TheDrum

Fantastic journalism from @GuardianAus on what it's like to be on the #NDIS in remote First Nations communities in the NT. Featuring June Riemer of @FPDNAus #DisabilityRights #NDISStories theguardian.com/australia-ne…

The land the NDIS forgot: the remote Indigenous communities losing the postcode lottery

More than half of Northern Territory participants in the disability scheme are Indigenous – and for those who live on country, isolation, culture and environment are compounded by bureaucratic hurdles
