Jobs + Education
People with intellectual disability can face discrimination and inequality in education and the workplace.
We want people with intellectual disability to have equal opportunities for good education and a meaningful career.
What CID thinks about jobs and education
Education needs to work for all students, including those with intellectual disability.
Everyone deserves a workplace where they can contribute and feel included and respected.

What we are doing
CID runs projects to support people with intellectual disability and their employers.
More than Just a Job
Through our More than Just a Job project we offer training and support for people with intellectual disability to find and keep a job they enjoy. We also train employers on how to better support people with intellectual disability.
Inclusion Works
Inclusion Works 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. We offer free training and support to councils to implement their inclusive employment priorities.
