The Queensland Disability Peak and Representative Body Program funds organisations to deliver peak body services to Queenslanders with disability, their family members and carers across ten categories of disability. More information on the program, and the providers in the other categories can be found here Peak body supports | People with disability | Queensland Government (www.qld.gov.au)
Our role as the Peak and Representative body for Intellectual Disability is to help and support people with intellectual disability:
- with accessible and disability-specific information
- with online and state-wide phone support and referral services
- through news, advice, referral information, and communication about support and services available in Queensland including information to access the NDIS
- by providing expert advice and feedback to government on matters impacting people with disability
- by promoting community awareness, education and training information for organisations and employers, and the broader community to influence community attitudes and remove barriers to inclusion
- by developing resources to support employers in attracting, recruiting and retaining people with disability
