queensland disability action week
Queensland readers may be interested to know that the Queensland Government Disability Services yearly action week is coming up shortly. Disability Online: Disability Action Week (17 - 23 July 2005): Disability Action Week celebrates the experiences of people with a disability, raises community awareness about barriers to equal access and promotes best practice. Through its focus on local action, the week has become a catalyst for lasting positive change in many Queensland communities.
Interestingly when one looks for "Disability Action" on google, one finds only government or educational references. NOT ONE SINGLE WEB PAGE regarding action groups operated for and by Disabled individuals. (must admit gave up after 8 pages of the above)
God help this government when the disabled and homeless begin to organize.
What I'd like to see is 150,000 homeless people (75% of the current homeless figure) descend on Canberra or any other city and clog ever department within that city.
I'd say that the government would then have to get serious about these issues rather than spending huge amounts of money on feel good web page's.
Or events like those you're promoting.
Just a thought!
