HomePlace Disability Support Service We are a community-based organisation providing lifestyle support for individuals with disabilities to enable them to live confidently in their own home

HomePlace is an organisation built on the belief that every individual has the right to a secure home and active participation in the life of the community. Established in 1989, HomePlace was formed by a group of parents who were seeking to secure an independent future for their intellectually disabled adult children

These parents wanted to feel confident and assured that their children, who they had cared for until adulthood, could move into their own home, and be well supported. Today, this sentiment is just as strong as it was at HomePlace’s inception, with the organisation offering personal and individualised disability support. We work in partnership to provide support that is personalised to our participants’ wants and needs and moving them towards a more meaningful life.

On the International Day of Sign Languages (23rd September), we recognise the importance of protecting the more than 300 sign languages used by people living with disability around the world. 🌏 🧏

Common sign languages include Auslan and Makaton, but there are also the unique signs that some of the people we support, like Jackie, use with their HomePlace team and important people in their lives.

People who use sign language have the same human rights as anyone else, including the right to communicate with others and make their own decisions. ✅

Sign languages are just as important as spoken languages and we must do our part to support people living with disability to communicate in the ways they prefer, allowing them to take their rightful place at the heart of their communities. 💜 💚

We thank Jackie for teaching us about her preferred ways to communicate and for contributing what is meaningful to her to the world. 🌟

[Image Description: A pale yellow tile graphic with big black and dark green text on the left that reads 'International Day of Sign Languages. 23rd September'. On the right, there is a photo of Jackie, a woman living with disability who uses sign language and whom HomePlace supports. She has light skin, short brown hair, and wears a red t-shirt. She is signing with her hands. The HomePlace logo is in the bottom left corner. It has a green sun and dark purple text that reads 'HomePlace Disability Support'.]

Getting ready for work is something many of us do every day. 💼

It might seem simple: wake up, get dressed, and leave the house.

But getting to work on time and feeling ready for the day takes planning, routine, and confidence. ⏰

For someone like Nick, who lives with intellectual disability, the right routines and support can make all the difference. 🌟

Our blog article explores how extra supports like clear routines, extra time, and support with travel and feeling ready can help people living with intellectual disability to start their workday with confidence. ✅

When workplaces and support teams understand and cater to the needs and preferences of people living with intellectual disability, we help create a more inclusive, respectful community where everyone can do their best work. 💜 💚

[Image Descriptions: 2 pale yellow graphic tiles. The first tile has dark purple and black text on the top left that reads ‘Arriving ready for work: People living with intellectual disability often prepare in steps – why?’ A dark green text box is below with white text that reads ‘Read our blog’. On the right, is a photo of Nick smiling and doing a thumbs up. He is wearing brown glasses, an Adelaide United Football Club jacket, and a dark grey backpack. The HomePlace logo is in the bottom left corner. It has a green sun and dark purple text that reads ‘HomePlace Disability Support’.

The second tile has a series of 5 numbered photos showing Nick’s morning routine before work. In the first image, Nick is standing at the breakfast table pouring juice into a cup. In the second, he is sitting down and drinking coffee. In the third, he is getting dressed, sitting on his bed and putting on his work boots. In the fourth, Nick is sitting at a table, smiling and chatting with a member of his support team. In the final image, Nick is outside, smiling and waving while holding a takeaway coffee, ready to go to work. The light purple text in dark purple block headings above each photo reads ‘1. Breakfast. 2. Coffee. 3. Getting dressed. 4. Chat with support team. 5. Nick goes to work!’]

At HomePlace, we believe great support is about more than ‘meeting standards’. 💜 💚

It’s about truly knowing each person, building trusted relationships, and supporting people to live lives filled with purpose, connection, and choice. 🤝

All registered providers must meet NDIS standards, but the best providers go further.

In this blog article, we outline 5 ways to recognise a provider who genuinely provides great support:

1. They take the time to truly know the person living with disability whom they support, their family members, and other important people in their lives. ✅

2. Their leaders are visible and approachable. ✅

3. They focus on doing a few things well. ✅

4. They support real connection and belonging. ✅

5. They are open, clear, and respectful. ✅

On International Youth Day (12th August), we recognise and celebrate the dreams, goals, and achievements of young people living with disability. 🌟 🙌

Emily, one of the young people we support, has many dreams. In her own words, “Some are small, some are big, and some are kind of sparkly around the edges”. ✨

When she’s not spending time with her grandma, also known as ‘The Queen’, or dreaming about travelling with her to more places overseas, she’s packing dog treats as part of her job and visiting the zoo to see new animals, especially tigers, her favourite. ✈️ 🦴 🐯

Emily has also been working with an OT to improve her balance, strength, and movement and is getting closer to her goal of walking up and down stairs by herself. 💪

At HomePlace, we are proud to support young people to achieve the things that have meaning to them, whether that is through sport, the performing arts, learning to use public transport, or sharing their vision for their life. 💜 💚

[Image Descriptions: A series of 5 pale yellow tile graphics with purple and black text, photos and illustrations of Emily engaging in the listed activities, and the HomePlace logo in the bottom left corner. It has a green sun and dark purple text that reads ‘HomePlace Disability Support’.

Tile 1 reads ‘Hi, I’m Emily, and I’ve got plenty of dreams: I love games–anything fun. I enjoy going for walks–I need a little bit of encouragement though. I love going to the movies, even horror! I love spending time with Grandma, travelling with her and dreaming about visiting more places and going overseas’.

Tile 2 reads ‘I spend a lot of time at my grandma’s house. I love my grandma a lot. I call her ‘The Queen’.

Tile 3 reads ‘I pack dog treats for my work. When we visit the supermarket, I always check to see if the dog treats are on the shelves’.

Tile 4 reads ‘I go to OT most Fridays. I work on things like balance, strength, and movement–one of my goals is to learn to walk stairs, and I’m getting there’.

Tile 5 reads ‘Fridays after OT are my extra fun days–I love the zoo and visit with my membership. I love visiting any new animals. My favourite is the tiger; I could watch it for ages’.]

Wishing our HomePlace community a joyous Disability Pride Month! ♿ 💜 💚

Despite fearful and confusing news of changes to the NDIS this year, we are very proud of the people we support for their courage and resilience in continuing to live big, rich lives of their own choosing.

We value the contributions people living with disability make to our communities, whether as homemakers, employees, volunteers, or advocates.

Enjoy this look back at last year’s winter disco, where the colours of the Disability Pride Flag could be seen all over the dance floor! 🖤 💛 🩵 ❤️ 💚 🤍
