Join the fight to end violence, abuse, neglect and exploitation of people with disability by engaging with the Disability Royal Commission.
PWDA has developed resources to help people engage with the issues raised in public hearings. We have also made a number of submissions to the Disability Royal Commission.
The Disability Royal Commission is holding a series of public hearings on particular issues, such as discrimination in education, employment and healthcare, restrictive practices, the criminal justice system, child protection services, violence in the home, and others.
You can find information on the issues discussed at the hearings, and links to PWDA's live twitter commentary here.

We’re keeping a list, and explaining the jargon in plain language.
