We provide information and support to parents and families who have a child or young adult with any type of disability or developmental delay across NSW.

Parents run our Association, so we know what it’s like to have a child with a disability. We understand issues from a parent and family perspective.

ACD NSW seeks to give strength to the voice of families caring for a child with a disability.

Our activities include:

• publication of Through the Maze and Helping You and Your Family (click here to order a copy)
• updating from time to time the electronic copy of Through the Maze
• publishing a quarterly newsletter, free to members, that provides information on what’s happening and what you need to know, as well as stories from families that are a great source of strength and inspiration for other families and for professionals who work with families
• providing information seminars on issues ranging from advocacy and supported accommodation to establishing trusts and will writing
• advocating for improved services, and raising awareness of the issues and difficulties facing parents, carers and families
• providing telephone support and networking with other parents and families
• working with other groups, service providers, the government and other decision-makers on issues affecting families.
