Background

The City of Cockburn, in partnership with E-Qual Disability Consultants, has been working on its latest plan for a more accessible and inclusive community. We have engaged with people of all abilities to understand their needs and develop a draft plan that will further promote accessibility and inclusivity in our community over the next five years.

Under the Disability Services Act 1993, every local and state government agency must develop a Disability Access & Inclusion Plan (DAIP). These plans help public authorities plan and implement improvements to access and inclusion across seven outcome areas including:

  • Services and events
  • Buildings and facilities
  • Information
  • Quality of service
  • Complaints
  • Consultation processes
  • Employment.

We have considered the feedback of over 280 community members, key stakeholders, and our Disability Reference Group to prepare this draft plan. Now, before we finalise and present it to the Council for consideration, we would like to hear from you. We want to ensure that the plan aligns with your expectations and meets the diverse needs of our community.
