Inclusion Works

Inclusion Works – Inclusive Employment for Councils is an initiative promoting inclusive employment practices for people with intellectual disability in NSW councils.  As local leaders, councils have a unique opportunity to set an example for the community. The project started in 2023 and concludes in June 2024.

We offer free training and support to councils throughout the duration of the project in implementing inclusive employment priorities outlined in their Disability Inclusion Action Plans (DIAPs) and other inclusion and diversity strategies.

We working with councils and address the needs and priorities of each council.

Through an expression of interest, we selected 12 councils for this project. To be selected, councils needed to commit to improving inclusive practices to support the employment of people with intellectual disability within the council.

The councils we are working with are:

• City of Canterbury Bankstown
• City of Ryde
• City of Sydney
• Oberon Council
• Sutherland Shire Council
• Wollongong City Council
• Central Coast Council
• Cessnock City Council
• Forbes Shire Council
