New guide to help build a trauma-informed disability sector

Published 18th August 2020

The Morrison government is backing the creation of a best-practice guide to help the disability sector better support people with disability who have experienced complex trauma. 

Social Services Minister Anne Ruston said the government was investing $267,760 in the project to ensure Australia leads the way in supporting people with disability who suffer violence, abuse, neglect or exploitation.

The guide is being developed amid the ongoing disability royal commission, which has uncovered shocking cases of abuse against people with disability.
