Take Charge of Change
From starting school or a first job to taking part in a new hobby, life is full of big changes.
CYDA’s new project, Take Charge of Change, is all about supporting our community to meet those key moments with confidence.
We are working with 40 young people with disability, parents, and caregivers to co-design practical resources for their peers.
We have four co-design groups working on this project:
- Parents and caregivers of children with disability aged 0 – 7
- Parents and caregivers of children with disability aged 8 – 12
- Young people with disability aged 13 – 17
- Young people with disability aged 18 – 25
The resources created will equip disabled young people and families with the tools and knowledge to thrive.
They will also help providers make their services more accessible and inclusive for all.
This project is supported by the Department of Social Services (DSS) through the Information, Linkages and Capacity Building (ILC) grant.

Expressions of interest for co-design groups in Wave 1 are now closed.
