Disability & Housing Forums

We are pleased to share with you two upcoming, free online events for people with disability, their families, carers and support coordinators.

Monday 8 and Tuesday 9 November 2021

Shelter SA is partnering with Rights & Inclusion Australia and Enliven Community to host the first forum on 8 November as part of the Opening the Door project. The forum will bring people together to learn more about the state of the housing system in South Australia and where to find information, assistance and advice. 

The second forum on 9 November will be a workshop where participants will be able to continue to discuss housing options. The Opening the Door project will provide ongoing information and opportunities for discussion beyond the event. Attendance is free but you must register.

Registrations close at 12.00 pm on Sunday 7 November.

You will be asked if you require any of the below items when registering. Please email Rights & Inclusion Australia at projectofficer@riaustralia.org if you have any concerns.

• AUSLAN services (for either session)
• Help to find a support person (for either session)
• Live captioning (Session 2 only; we will have captioning available for Session 1)

Please share this invitation with your clients if they are people with disability, their families and carers and your colleagues who coordinate support for people with disability.  We look forward to seeing you there!

Thank you to our members, supporters and stakeholders who attended our Annual General Meeting this week as well as the Shelter SA Board Members. We had an effective and time-efficient meeting to fulfill our legal and governance obligations and we are looking forward to another big year of advocacy for affordable housing.
