Some people are 'disabled'. Others 'live with' or 'have a disability'. Here's the difference between identity-first and person-first language from ABC News abc.net.au/news/2022-12-0… #disability #disabled #identity #IdentityFirstLanguage #PeopleFirst #language #ableism

PWDA welcomes news that the Department of Social Services (DSS) has rejected recommendations that would have placed an unnecessary and unfair burden on some people receiving the Disability Support Pension.

The rejected changes would have seen disability pensioners randomly selected and required to undergo medical reviews as part of a program to check the accuracy of welfare payments: canberratimes.com.au/story/8331397/…

Throughout the #DefendOurNDIS campaign the issue we heard the most about was the AAT. It was breaking people. The NDIA were fighting intellectually disabled participants w/ 5-8 top tiered lawyers. It must undergo total cultural reform. #AusPol
