For people with disabilities, "finding a voice" means having the ability to influence decisions about their lives, whether social, economic or political.

Dating from the early 1980s, many organisations were formed across Australia by people with disabilities to represent these interests and to improve opportunities and services for people with disabilities within the community.

For people with disabilities, Government legislation since the 1980s has played an important role.
