Safeguarding and promoting the rights and interests of people with disability, their families and carers.

🚨 Important Announcement 🚨

 

From 1 April 2025, Disability Rights Advocacy Service (DRAS) will no longer be delivering services under the National Disability Advocacy Program (NDAP), NDIS Appeals program and Information, Linkages and Capacity Building - Individual Capacity Building program.

 

We have agreed to transition our grant activity to Advocacy for Disability Access & Inclusion Inc (ADAI), another disability advocacy service provider in South Australia.

 

We understand that changes to advocacy supports can be challenging and concerning for our clients, and we are making every effort to ensure a smooth and supported transition of services. We will be contacting existing DRAS clients individually regarding these changes.

 

Thank you for being part of the DRAS community, we have valued our contribution to safeguarding and promoting the rights and interests of people with disability, their families and carers for over 30 years.

 

Thankyou - DRAS team
