The still seems to be many to be many misconceptions around the introduction of Disability Care Australia so the best place to go for information is their website. It is important to remember the scheme is early trial stages to find out what works and what doesn't. From July 1 2014 the scheme will be rolled out across the country and start up dates vary depending on where you live.
The future for people living with disabilities and their families now looks much brighter, as we prepare to have a greater say in what our lives will look like and how we want to engage in our community. For the 420 000 estimated Australian who will benefit from the Introduction od Disability Care Australia that will look very different on the ground. It is very difficult to imagine a system of care that is so individualized. In 12 months time we will see examples of how some of the trail participants are using their funding different to prior to July 1 2013 and I find that exciting.
I hope we see some people engaging in their communities in way we've not seen before. I hope we find new ways of supporting people to achieve their dreams or the dreams the have for their son or daughter.
I hope we are able to open up a new world of possibilities for all Australians, not just a few. All Australians have the right to make the same types of decisions regardless or the type of impairment or the level of impairment. The NDIS message continues to be the same Every Australian Counts.
Disability Care Australian is not a restructure of the disability support sector. It is a revolution in the way we view people living with disabilities, it is a system not based on limitations but possibilities. Especially in it emphasis on early intervention program. OK so not every child will be able to walk. As we explore the possibilities we must to learn to recognize our individual limits.
But we must all take responsibility to build an accessible Australia.
