Disability Advocate. Equality is a right not a favour. Special interest - Dept of Education - their disinterest in academic outcomes and stopping restraint.

Has anyone noticed one change in schools' treatment of kids w disabilities since the DRC? Not me. @stephgot @CatiaMalaquias

Structured evidence-based reading and writing instruction is for all students without exception. This includes students with #disability
No exceptions.

Victorian state budget-no money set aside for responding to the Disability Royal Commission. What's going on?

When are students with disabilities going to get an apology for their abuse?

My 2nd amendment is to change the title of the bill from "Disability Service & Inclusion Act" to "Disability Services Act". It's not acceptable to have inclusion in the title when the guts of the bill fails to end to segregation.
Greens: Support
Labor + Liberal: Oppose

Was just threatened with a Community Safety Order by Anne Cunniff NW Region, DET. Looks like threats are par for the course. heraldsun.com.au/victoria-ed…
So what impression has the DRC made on the police force so far?9news.com.au/national/south-…
So the NDIS knew about this in 2019 and did nothing? Shame. psnews.com.au/former-judge-j…

Victoria DET works as hard as it can to funnel kids w disabilities in to segregated schools. @AllMeansAllAus @CatiaMalaquias @DrKatedeBruin abc.net.au/news/2023-10-24/v…

This is courage personified. When a group of people or an institution tries to cover-up their own failures to protect people under their care by abusing their employees, they often 'win' in the short term, but when they keep doubling down and eventually encounter someone with the integrity, strength and determination shown here by @Lyshrose, it begins to unravel and they fail spectacularly.
For context. I am a CSA Whistleblower who was working in AYDC and after threats, assault, bullying sexual harassment as a result of reporting my colleagues, and my employer @RockliffTeam doing nothing to keep me safe, I developed PTSD & had to leave site on WC.
