We have two new Directors on our board.

Kylie has been part of our advocacy group.

The CID constitution is now in Easy Read.

We think we have the only Easy Read constitution in Australia.

We hope other organisations will make Easy Read constitutions too.

The My Rights Matter project thinks we need a new law so people with disability can get support to make their own decisions.

People with disability have the same rights as everyone else.

They should get support to make their own decisions.

Our CEO Justine and Project Workers Ricky and Alex spoke to the Disability Royal Commission (DRC).

They talked about supported decision making.

They told the DRC that all people have the right to decide and the right to support.

People with lived experience need to be leaders in supported decision making.

That means being a leader in

• talking about it
• deciding what good support is
• training
