Yesterday I had the pleasure of attending a forum hosted by the @ndisreview. People coming together invested in the future of the NDIS. Loved the opportunity and with the guidance of the review team and participants, we will strive to make the NDIS experience better!

It is critical for people with disability, participants and their families to have their say in the #NDISReview. It is their lived experience that will inform the Review's recommendations. #NDIS ndisreview.gov.au/have-your-say

The definition of ‘reasonable and necessary’ is too broad and confusing. And, inconsistent in how they are used and applied. #NDIS How you would define reasonable and necessary? #NDISReview #HaveYourSay ndisreview.gov.au/resources/repo…

I couldn’t make it to the final hearing but I was pleased to be able to provide evidence at the @DRC_AU when I was CEO of CYDA. The injustice in the way our society treats people with disability must end #EndSegregation now!! abc.net.au/news/2023-09-1…
