Annual Report 2019
Financial year 2018/19 was another year of high achievement despite the ongoing challenges we face in having enough resources to meet the needs of our people with disability and their families.
Annual Report 2020
2019-2020 and the impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic has been the most exacerbating year, to say the least, for FPDN staff, Board and our communities around Australia. As Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, our sense of being and wellbeing is centered around human contact with each other.
Annual Report 2021
November 2020 marked the 20th anniversary of the First Peoples Disability Network (Australia). We not only celebrated this momentous occasion, but also took the opportunity to look back and reflect on our journey. We pay tribute to our founding Elders Uncle Lester Bostock and Aunty Gayle Rankine for their vision and leadership, alongside our CEO Damian Griffis, in establishing and building our movement, and to those who have been and remain a part of our story.
