Disability Is Not About You

is about working with people with a disability in Australia. The key concept “it’s not about you” explains how people in the industry cause problems because their own personal bias and preferences impact their daily decisions with their clients and service provision.

The author explains the concept by giving many examples of issues arising when people don’t put their own bias aside and allow the person with a disability to have choice and control over their lives and their service provision.

The book is clear and concise, it’s a simple message that can make a huge difference to the industry.
