The past few years have seen considerable change within the disability sector. The Department of Communities has decided to establish an office of disability to ensure that people with disability, their families and carers continue to receive high quality services and supports within Western Australia.

An engagement process was undertaken throughout the State from 1 July 2020 and a qualitative research methodology used to evaluate the findings. This report includes the findings and will inform the establishment of a new office focussing on people with disability and the disability sector.
