Dignity for Disability (formerly Dignity for Disabled) is launching its 2010
campaign to win representation and a fair go for people with disabilities .
Friday, November 6, 2009
10.40am for 11am media
Glenside Hospital (entrance) Fullarton Road
We need representatives and community members from all walks of life,
representing themselves and others with disabilities to be present. The
party will outline its policies and reach out for support from the
community.
If you are a person with a disability, or a carer and would like to help, or
briefly speak (we need some volunteers to each say one sentence or two)
please contact us ASAP.
Spokesperson Rick Neagle, who ran with D4D in the 2006 State election, said
"South Australia spends less per client than any other State in Australia,
and we are here to represent those with disabilities, mental health concerns
as well as the frail & aged, all of whom are not given the dignity through
choice that they deserve.
More than half of the disability dollars in the SA budget are spent on
employee salaries, with a 33% increase in employees earning more than $100K
in 2009.
Despite more than 4,500 staff we know people with disabilities are still
not receiving basic services with some not allowed to even shower more than
twice a week.
"Parents of typical children are not dictated which child care provider or
babysitter they use, so why is it that parents of children with disabilities
are told who will care for their children?
"We are about DIGNITY THROUGH CHOICE - people with disabilities deserve
control over how to spend their funds."

community together, our goal is to ensure Dignity through Choice.

suitable criteria online information that is of wide disability community
interest via our database that now numbers nearly 4,000 recipients for Govt,
advocacy groups and other major disability organizations. We hope in the

information from political groups. Such distribution is not in any way
endorsement by Disability Speaks. From time to time Disability Speaks will
also distribute media releases commenting on developments in the disability
sector. We strongly encourage you to forward all releases to your friends,
clients and disability supporters and encourage them to subscribe direct. To
