Our @Elgar Research Handbook on Disability Policy is out in the world!

Two years of hard work by 70 authors. The book interweaves personal narratives from disabled people with academic chapters which provide important insights into how policy affects human rights.

This thread from @HChristinaR is so important in demonstrating why the #DisabilityRC needs to elevate the issues and discuss the impact of systems and systemic abuse on people with disability.

Did Ann Marie suffer from cerebral palsy or did she suffer from an uncaring community that allows Integrity Care to send only one support worker, then to sack her when it goes all wrong?

Do you know about abuse in group homes?

The Disability Royal Commission wants to hear about abuse in group homes

They want to know how things can be better

For more info about how to tell the Royal Commission about your experience check out @CIDvoice https://t.co/TBMLfrdXLZ
