This project features content and resources about disability pride created by disabled young people. It aims to encourage all Victorians to see disability as a strength. Shifting the community perception of disability is an essential part of helping to remove the barriers disabled young people face across all aspects of their lives.
The resources invite employers to reflect on their attitudes towards hiring and retaining employees with disability. The project celebrates the unique skills and perspectives that disabled young people can bring to a workplace. The resources also include content for organisations, the wider community and disabled young people.
Around 30 disabled young people in Victoria participated as part of the Project Advisory Group. The Gallery is an opportunity to meet the content creators and check out their amazing art, videos, poems, written pieces and more.
