Disability Respite and Activity Centres
About Us
Under the National Disability Insurance Scheme we are improving the capacity of people with a disability to exercise choice and control over the services that are provided to them.
Our service culture focuses on upholding human rights and fostering the well-being, inclusion, safety and quality of life of all people with a disability.
We offer programs specially targeted to Teens, Young Adults and Adults.
Teens Program
Our Teens Program is a social and recreational program for young people with a disability. It provides the opportunity for young people to develop and enhance their social skills and build peer networks.
Young Adults Program
Our Young Adults Program is a post school program for young adults with a disability. This program adopts a person-centred approach that is responsive to participants’ needs and wants.
Adults Program
Our Adults Program is an activities based program for adults with disabilities. The program is conducted by an experienced coordinator and a dedicated team of volunteers in group settings. There is an emphasis on providing a friendly, supportive environment in which personal development and confidence can flourish.
