Disability Rights Advocacy Service
Free services that safeguard and promote the rights and interests of people with disability, their families, and carers.
DRAS is a community organisation run by our members and Board, which is made up of people with a disability.
We are part of the national network of disability advocacy organisations funded by the Australian Government through the Department of Social Services.
Our individual advocacy program represents people on a one-to-one basis to resolve their individual concerns.
Our advocates will work with a person who has a disability, their family, guardian and/or significant associate in a way that supports their wishes in resolving issues.
This includes Centrelink benefits and SACAT issues, NDIS Appeals, Royal Commission Support, and building individual capacity.
