We wanted our plan to support all people with disability.

This means we need to think about:

• other parts of a person’s life
• how people feel
• what people go through.

Our plan includes ideas to support 7 groups of people with disability.

1. Culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) people with disability

CALD people:

• come from different cultures and backgrounds
• speak languages other than English.

2. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people with disability

3. Women with disability

4. Children with disability

5. LGBTIQA+ people with disability

The letters LGBTIQA stand for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, intersex, queer or questioning and asexual.

The ‘+’ is for people who are part of the LGBTIQA+ community but don’t talk about themselves using a word from this list.

6. People with intellectual disability or who are more at risk because of their disability

An intellectual disability affects how you:

• learn new things
• solve problems
• communicate
• do things on your own.

7. People with disability who live far away from cities and towns
