  • find out about and access peak bodies and reports

  • learn about independent living options and aids and equipment that can help

  • determine what transport options are available and how to access them

  • find out where to go or who to speak to if you or someone you love is experiencing domestic/family violence

  • access legal information

  • learn about disability advocacy and policies and how you can get involved through activism

  • determine what housing and accommodation options are available.

All the Women and Disability links have been reviewed and selected by our expert women’s network to ensure each link is reliable, reputable and relevant to Victorian women. QVWC thanks all of the experts who generously shared their time and knowledge to ensure the information provided is trustworthy.

A huge thank you is also due to our Project Intern, Carol Dobson. Carol trawled through hundreds of websites, filtering information and narrowing down the resource selection to ensure that Victorian women can gain easy access to appropriate information.
