Support the Rights of First Nations Peoples with Disability. Your donation helps create stronger, more empowered communities and brighter futures. Every contribution makes a meaningful difference. Make a donation today.
First Peoples with disability and their families are among the most disadvantaged members of the Australian community. We give voice to their needs and advocate for the recognition, respect, and fulfilment of their human rights.
We work within a social model of disability— recognising that it’s not just about a person’s condition, but about the barriers that prevent full participation in society. These barriers must be dismantled. Your donation helps us do exactly that.
As a not-for-profit organisation, we rely on your support to continue our work for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people with disability, their families, and communities. Your contribution directly supports our advocacy and on-the-ground services, empowering First Peoples with disability to live with dignity, independence and opportunity.
Your support enables us to focus on strategic, community-led action that drives real change— whether that’s reforming policies in disability, health, education and child protection, or upgrading practical supports like our community van and the Paterson Street Hub. You’re helping to remove barriers and create more inclusive, accessible spaces for those who need it most.
Together, we can build stronger, more empowered communities and brighter futures for our children, families, and future generations.
