Disability Information Advisory Services
We provide independent information and advice on disability and disability services to Pacific peoples with disabilities, their families and caregivers, providers and the general public so they can make informed decisions on their pathway forward. This information and advice may include:
What disability support services are available, and how to access them
How to find support and advocacy groups
How to navigate the different disability services, and
Information related to a specific disability
We provide this information and advice a number of ways, through:
Our ethnic-specific disability information and advice coordinators who are ready to help
Our ethnic-specific radio programmes
Our community outreach programmes (Auckland-wide, Wellington and Christchurch), and
Our website
How to access this service
