Advocacy WA is heading to Brunswick to deliver free, interactive workshops for people with disability, their support networks, and the wider community.
These sessions are all about understanding your rights, recognising quality support, and building the skills to speak up when something doesn’t feel right. Whether you're a service provider, family member, support worker, or a person with lived experience these workshops are for you.
Ensuring Safe, Quality and Collaborative Services
For NDIS providers, frontline workers, and community organisations
This professional development session is for those working in or alongside NDIS services. Led by Sarah Pepper, Quality and Safeguards Manager at Enable WA, it provides practical tools for embedding rights in service delivery, understanding and navigating the Practice Standards, and managing complaints and restrictive practices in line with best practice.
Self-Advocacy Workshop
For people with disability, young people, and peer mentors
This workshop supports people with disability to feel confident using their voice—whether that means asking questions, making decisions, or speaking up when something isn’t right. It’s designed to build everyday skills that empower people to advocate for themselves with clarity and confidence.
Your rights, Your supports, Your services
For people with disability, families, carers, and informal supporters
This session focuses on what good, respectful support should look like and how to recognise when it’s not happening. We explore topics like restrictive practices, supported decision-making, and how to speak up safely and effectively when something feels wrong.
Some people attend just one. Others stay for the full day. The choice is yours.
If you’re unsure which session is right for you or your team, we’re more than happy to help.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
How do I sign up?
All our upcoming workshops can be found on this link https://events.humanitix.com/host/advocacywa
Do I need to attend all three workshops?
No. You can attend just the session that suits your role or interest—or stay for the whole day if it’s all relevant to you.
Can I come to more than one session?
Yes! Many people choose to attend two or even all three workshops, especially if they wear multiple hats as a support worker, family member, or advocate.
I’m a family member or support person can I attend the Self-Advocacy session too?
Yes. People with disability and their supporters are welcome at both the 11:30am and 12:30pm sessions.
Is the Provider session suitable for support workers, not just managers?
Absolutely. It’s designed for everyone working in NDIS services—frontline staff, team leaders, coordinators, and community-based workers.
Is this training only for NDIS participants and registered providers?
No. Anyone involved in the NDIS, registered or not, can benefit. These workshops are open to all community members committed to improving disability rights and safety.
