Description

Maitland City Council is seeking community feedback on the Draft Disability Inclusion Action Plan (DIAP) 2026- 2030. The DIAP sets out a four-year approach to meet Council’s responsibilities under the NSW Disability Inclusion Act 2014. The DIAP seeks to identify barriers and solutions to inclusion in the community and sets the framework and priorities for continuous improvement in relation to inclusion and access for Maitland’s residents. The DIAP identifies actions across the four focus areas of the NSW DIAP framework to address physical, social and systemic barriers that limit participation and inclusion. 

These include:

  • Developing positive community attitudes and behaviours
  • Creating liveable communities
  • Supporting access to meaningful employment and;
  • Improving access to mainstream services through better systems and processes
