Carers Alliance
Disability is a fact of life and should be embraced as part of our human diversity. People with disability deserve to have services and supports that enable them to participate to the fullest extent possible in the social, cultural and economic life of Australia and to have the same expectations that are taken for granted by our fellow citizens without disability.
The realities that affect carer-families and people with disability do not follow 3 or 4 year elections cycles, they are with us every day.
Carers Alliance is now calling for memberships to register
state and territory political parties.
Carers Alliance wants to contest state elections and local government elections. Each state has different requirements for membership and different ways to register political parties.
We need your help to make this happen.
In March, 2008 the carers “bonus” was under threat. Only the enormous public outrage prevented it from being cut from the Budget. Unless we remain vigilant any concessions and benefits made to carers and people with disability can so easily be withdrawn, it takes but a stroke of the pen. Please go to the links for each state to download a membership form. We appreciate your assistance in this endeavour.
