Parents & Carers
As well as supporting people with disabilities and their families, we believe in developing opportunities for parents and carers to ensure their lives, as well as the lives of those they care for and their immediate families, are enriched. We do this through assisting parents and carers to participate in their local community, foster relationships that strengthen informal networks provide information and support to plan for their future through key stages of life.
1. Caring for the Carer
To overcome some of the barriers that are associated with caring for a family member with a disability, Interchange Illawarra believes in providing holistic support to parents and carers.
2. Workshops & Information
We can provide one-on-one support to parents & carers to assist with the development of visual aids to support communication with the person you care for.
3. We Value Your Feedback
Your feedback, as well as ideas and suggestions for different activities is very much appreciated.

Attention all our Volunteers & Support Workers!!
Please keep an eye on your email for the Mandatory NDIS Quality & Safeguarding training information that we have sent out to you today.
The Commission has done a fantastic job on this Module, the content is interesting and well delivered.
This training is also available to the general public so if you would like to find out a bit more about the NDIS Quality & Safeguarding Commission, and how it protects the rights of people with disabilities, please feel free to click on the link and complete the training.
All the training costs is 90 minutes of your time but it gives you valuable understanding of how people with disabilities deserve to have quality support to live an ordinary life.
