Deadline: 30 September 2017
Australian Disability and Indigenous Peoples’ Education Fund is currently accepting applications in order to support disabled and indigenous people of Australia through education.
Unfortunately for many people with disabilities their early years are more about cure and rehabilitation than stable, well-grounded education. The skills to make and retain careers, relationships and friends are developed while they attend school however continuing disruption of this education impacts greatly on this learning. For many children presently attending school, medical treatment and rehabilitation continues to disrupt their education. Many indigenous people with disabilities experience further disruption to their education due to poverty, isolation, lack of services, family breakdown.
This education fund is about helping people complete or undertake courses and programs through providing small grants.
