Please note that PWDA offers a range of other training packages.
Sexuality and Respectful Relationships
This training package is designed for people with disability. It will equip participants with an in-depth understanding of their human and sexual rights. It will help participants to recognise violence and abuse, and support them in developing strategies around prevention and response.
Disability Awareness and Competency
This training package is designed to enhance mainstream support services who may be working with people with disability engaging with the Royal Commission. It is essentially designed to raise the disability competence of staff and of the organisation as a whole.
Responding to Sexual Assault
This training package is designed for service providers to people with disability. It will equip participants with an in-depth understanding of preventative approaches to violence and abuse. It will help them to recognise where workplace cultures can impede best practice responses to sexual and other violence, and give them strategies for addressing these issues.
Supporting Respectful Relationships for Children and Adults with Disability
This training package is designed for parents, families and carers of people with disability. It will inform participants about the human and sexual rights of people with disability, the supports required for these rights to be realised, and strategies for responding to violence and abuse.
