Spotlight on The Hub at Carers ACT – 2018 Chief Minister’s Inclusion Awards
The Hub is a program developed by Carers ACT for young adults up to 40 years of age who have mild to moderate intellectual disability to support community access and independent living skills. The program has been ongoing for 18 months and includes a breakfast club, a gym club, and an initiative for members to undertake their own shopping.
This program has improved independence and social inclusion for people with disability. A number of members have gained employment through their successful outcomes. The Hub aims to create a future where participants are included in community life and supported by all members of the community to interact and engage. Participants have experienced growth in various aspects of their lives and the program has been a great success in achieving its aims.
