Disability Inclusion Action Plan
Consultation has concluded
Help us to make the City of Blue Mountains a better place for people living with disability to live, work and visit by helping us develop a Disability Inclusion Action Plan (DIAP).
As part of the NSW Disability Inclusion Act 2014, all councils are required to undertake disability inclusion action planning and produce a plan by July 2017. Blue Mountains City Council would like your input for our local DIAP.
A DIAP will identify actions which Council can undertake to assist people with a disability to participate more fully in community life.
The Blue Mountains City Council is developing the Draft DIAP to address four key areas that been nominated by people with disability as being of primary importance in creating an inclusive community.
- Developing positive community attitudes and behaviours
- Creating liveable communities
- Supporting access to meaningful employment
- Improving access to services through better systems and processes
The DIAP will provide a whole of Council approach to effectively plan for and deliver on the diverse needs of people with disability in our community.
