Disability Access and Inclusion Plan

The CAHS Disability Access and Inclusion Plan (DAIP) 2022 – 2025 describes where CAHS will focus its attention to improve inclusion and access to our services, facilities, information, employment and volunteering opportunities and events for people of all abilities.

Help shape the CAHS Disability Access and Inclusion Plan 2026 – 2028

We are currently reviewing our Disability Access and Inclusion Plan to provide a focused direction for the next 3 years as we aim to eliminate physical, institutional, and attitudinal barriers, and empower people with disability.

Consultation with consumers, families and staff is an essential part of the review process, and we would love to hear your feedback on what our priorities should be.

Please complete this short survey before 15 September 2025.

Outcomes of the Plan

The Plan was put together from the voices of the children, young people and families who use CAHS’s services, along with our staff and those who work with us.

The aim of the Plan is to reduce the barriers that people with disability face when accessing our services, to strengthen the way we identify and respond to the needs of people with disability, and to create an environment where everyone feels safe and welcomed.

The Plan runs over the next three years and is focused on achievements in the following outcome areas:

Outcome One
