The National Workforce Collaboration is a group of people living with disabilities, support workers, disability support providers, union representatives and advocates working together to co-design a campaign to grow a skilled disability workforce.
The What’s my Future campaign evolved when a group of passionate people got together wanting to address the current disability worker shortage. Instead of focusing on the issues, the National Workforce Collaboration was committed to developing a solution.
The campaign aims to change the narrative and societal attitudes towards people with disability and therefore change the value with which society views disability support work.
The goal is to attract and retain disability support workers through a public facing campaign designed to promote support work as a viable career option, increase community awareness of disability support work and improve community attitudes towards people with disability.
