Our WAiS work – Easy Read

At WAiS, our organisation is based around the members we have.

We work together with:

• people with disability
• people with psycho-social disability – their disability is a mental health concern
• families
• service providers
• government.

We do this by:

• helping people build up their skills so they can do things for themselves

• sharing information and resources

• coming up with new ideas and creative ways to do things

• talking to the government about ways to make things better for everyone.

We give people:

• information
• advice
• mentoring – we guide you so you can do things well
• coaching.

We tell everyone how good it can be to have supports and services that are:

• individualised – right for each person
• self-directed – they have choice and control.
