Voice at the Table

Voice at the Table We provide practical information to ensure people with a cognitive disability have a real and equal Voice At the Table. www.voiceatthetable.com.au

We offer free training sessions, message this page or check our web site for new dates. Voice at The Table (VATT) is a project of AMIDA. We advocate for an inclusive and accessible society through the way we work, and our training and resources. All our training and resources are co created by staff with and without cognitive disability. The VATT Graduate Training is for people with a cognitive disability wanting to learn about
- their rights,
- how to speak up to make change
- the Self Advocacy movement

The Inclusion Training builds capacity in:
- government departments (Local, State and Federal)
- service providers
- community oranisations
- mainstream organisations
to remove the barriers for people with cognitive disability sitting on committees, advisory and working groups. The Monthly Meetup is a peer led group in which VATT Graduates support each other in their self advocacy journey. VATT Chat is both a podcast and a 3CR radio show, getting the living experience of people with a cognitive disability out to the world.

We are excited to launch the new Self Advocacy for Everyone website! We call it SAFE.

The SAFE website will help people with an intellectual disability learn about their rights, build confidence, connect with others, and speak up about the things that matter to them.

It was codesigned by self advocates for self advocates!

Whether you want to know more about your rights, find a local group, hear lived-experience stories or access support, the SAFE website is here to help!

Explore the website here: https://www.selfadvocacy.org.au/

The SAFE website is part of the SAFE project which works to strengthen and support self advocacy across Australia. Read more about the project here: https://www.inclusionaustralia.org.au/project/self-advocacy-knowledge-hub/
