Diversability is Diversitat’s disability service and a registered National Disability Insurance System (NDIS) provider of disability supports. Diversability supports people with disability and their families/carers from a culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) background to navigate the disability system, link with the NDIS and advocate for their needs through the planning process.
Diversability assists NDIS participants to become more involved in community life and find service providers, through coordinating services and helping to develop personal capacity.
Diversability also advocates for access and equity within the Disability System for people from a CALD background. The program is involved in research, awareness raising, policy development and recommendations in the Settlement and Disability Sectors, including the NDIS, to ensure that the needs of individuals and families of CALD backgrounds are properly considered in disability and settlement services and support.
Please refer to our Disability Findings Report for recommendations and an example of our work.
