Disability Connect Information

Our vision is to ensure that people with disabilities and their families are able to lead the lives they want. We are here to respect and support their choices. Our mission is to lead and influence changes for people with disabilities and their families. Disability Connect has existed for 23 years. We are an incorporated society with a membership of over 6,700 and we have evolved our service over many years to serve the needs of our community. We have a Disability Information Advisory Services sub-contract with the Ministry of Health and we operate north to Warkworth and south to Te Henga. We are a not-for-profit organisation and have access to limited funding so we're very appreciative and dependent on donations to enable us to continue to deliver our quality service to families living with a disability. While we are not specific to any one particular disability, we can answer most questions posed to us, so please feel free to get in touch.
