    Thriving Kids Advisory Group Final Report

    The Thriving Kids Advisory Group Final Report outlines the proposed national model for Thriving Kids — a new system of supports for children aged 0–8 with developmental delay and/or autism with low to moderate support needs. The model prioritises early identification, timely connection to supports matched to a child's level of need, and a strengths-based approach that considers the needs of the child, family, carers and kin. Developed in consultation with people with lived experience, Disability Representative Organisations, First Nations people, and health, disability and education sectors, the report provides a comprehensive framework to guide governments in implementing Thriving Kids ahead of its staged rollout.

    Insights on refugees with disability in Australia: Foundations for belonging in 2025

    This report from Settlement Services International and the Institute for Culture and Society at Western Sydney University explores the experiences of refugees with disability in Australia. Based on 75 surveys and 13 interviews, it finds that social isolation, digital exclusion and fragmented services hinder settlement and inclusion. Refugees with disability face compounded barriers in housing, employment and access to supports like the NDIS. Despite challenges, many value Australia’s safety and diversity. The report calls for integrated, culturally responsive services and better coordination between refugee and disability sectors, reframing integration as a process shaped by rights, relationships and belonging.
