NSW Council for Intellectual Disability

Our vision

We want a community where all people with intellectual disability are valued.

We believe people with disability should have the same opportunities as everyone else.

We work to build a community that protects rights, includes everyone and supports people well.

Who we are

People with intellectual disability are at the front and centre of everything we do – they are our decision-makers, staff members, board members and spokespeople.

How we work

We speak up on the big issues and campaign for change. We talk to organisations about becoming more inclusive and accessible.

Through CID people with intellectual disability, their families and supporters can learn skills, and actively take part in the community.

We provide information, hold workshops and develop useful resources.

We share our stories and connect with peers.

We focus on issues that are important to people with intellectual disability, such as health, NDIS, jobs, education, transport and safety.
