Living My Way – new documentary film enhances understanding about disability in Aboriginal communities
Posted on April 16, 2014
The prevalence of disability amongst Aboriginal and Torres Islanders is significantly higher than in the general population. A new documentary film aims to increase awareness in Indigenous communities to recognise disability and help Indigenous people with disabilities to feel empowered.
Many Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people do not recognise disability or identify as disabled and it is important that the implementation of the NDIS in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities is led by Aboriginal people.
