Hi Trudy,

 

I will be attending the conference from Newcastle. It has taken a while to
organize booking and accommodation, but done now. I am a member of DeafBlind
Association of NSW, but will be attending on behalf of Community Disability
Alliance Hunter as Newcastle is a launch site for the scheme on 1 July.
Perhaps I'll see you there. Great to know you're organizing a group to
attend the conference.

Disability Care Australia Conference 

My Choice, My Control, My future : DisabilityCare Australia

23 - 24 June 2013

Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre

Early bird registrations are now open for the DisabilityCare Australia
conference - My Choice, My Control, My Future.

Join speakers such as the Minister for Disability Reform, Jenny Macklin MP,
Professor Emeritus Ron McCallum AO and Disability Commissioner Graeme Innes,
as well as other high-profile speakers from across the country and the
world.

The conference will bring together more than 1,000 Australians to discuss
DisabilityCare Australia, the national disability insurance scheme.

The conference will provide a forum for people to share their unique
experiences with disability, find out about the DisabilityCare, how it will
work and how governments will help people and service providers transition
to this new system of support.

The conference will also offer a premiere look at the Practical Design Fund
projects, an initiative that delivers practical solutions and innovative
ways to assist people with disability, their families and carers, as well as
service providers, to get ready for DisabilityCare Australia.

Australia.
