Youth disability in Australia

Youth disability in Australia : Face the facts briefing has been published by the Australian Clearinghouse for Youth Studies.  It highlights the key statistics, policy problems and development opportunities relevant to youth and disability today.  This is a particularly topical issue given current efforts to establish a national organisation to represent young people with disability, and the Australian Government’s recent decision to implement the National Disability Insurance Scheme.

See also Youth disability - Snapshot, a short, sharp overview of the issues and the facts from the full briefing.
