Our Voice Australia

Australia’s voice for people with an intellectual disability and their families.

Sign up to our employer network

As an employer of supported employees we invite you to join our employer network to receive updates on Our Voice Australia advocacy work.

We work with people with intellectual disability and their families to ensure they ‘have a say’ in services, legislation, policies and practices that impact them. We invite you to help us make sure those who need assistance advocating for themselves have a way to participate in the decisions that affect them.

Together we can amplify their voice.

To keep in the loop, join our network today.

NOTE:  Joining the employer network does not mean you have joined as an OVA member. Membership is not open to organisations.
