Since 1995, the Multicultural Disability Advocacy Association (MDAA) has been advocating for the rights of people with disability from CALD/NES backgrounds, their families and carers for better outcomes and improved access to services, opportunities and participation in the disability sector.
MDAA is the peak body for all people in NSW with disability and their families and carers, with a particular focus on those from a culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) and culturally and racially marginalised (CARM) background with disability.
We aim to promote, protect and secure the rights and interests of people with disability.
We view culture and disability through the lens of diversity. We see diversity as strength, and we promote this view in all our work.
