What We Do

Set Design Standards

Our Gold, Silver & Bronze standards set clear parameters for delivering the needs and wants of people with disabilities

Search for Innovation

Working together allows us to search for innovate design, equipment, funding and all those things that provide the world best practice SDA.

Provide a Voice

The introduction of SDA is the biggest social housing program Australia has ever delivered. It’s vital for those people delivering the properties have a united voice with the agency and regulators to address issues and speed up the process for people with disabilites

Provide a Link

We work with people with disabilities, their families, their carers, other support organisations and government (in that order) to help providers deliver places that make the people who live in them happy
