About Us

We provide information, support and advocacy for families who have a child or young adult with any type of disability or developmental delay across Victoria.

Our Association is run by parents so we know what it means to have a child with a disability. We understand issues from a family perspective. Our services include free telephone information and advocacy support for families.

Membership to our Association is FREE for families for the first 12 months.

Benefits of membership include our member magazine NoticeBoard which includes family stories, news and information about services and changes to government policy.
