One in five Australians have a disability, however many encounter a range of barriers, stereotypes and negative attitudes. How do people with disabilities experience their daily lives; what care and support is available to them? And what protections are available to people experiencing discrimination in employment, education, accommodation, and with limited access to services and public places? This book examines disability prevalence and support, and explores disability rights and discrimination. Also includes: worksheets and activities, fast facts, glossary, web links, index.
