“There are a lot of things that need to change in the Australian healthcare space, but the change we find ourselves fighting for the most tends to revolve around honoring lived experience as expertise, streamlining bureaucratic processes, and making healthcare more accessible and affordable for everyone – regardless of income, post code or any other identities they may hold.”
~ Senator Jordon Steele-John
Jordon Steele-John is a Greens Senator for WA and a proud disabled person. He advocates disability rights, a fair and fully-funded NDIS, and equitable healthcare for all Australians. Jordon’s goal is to challenge the boundaries of political norms, both in the Senate and the community and create a more accessible and inclusive society for all.
Jordon decided to be involved in our “Fair and Accessible Healthcare” webinar because of the shared values between himself, PDA, our members and his office. He hopes it will provide an opportunity for disabled community members, adjacent professionals and advocates, and our allies – to connect and share knowledge.
Join us on Tuesday 5th August (6pm AEST) to hear Jordon & other noteworthy speakers explore what is & isn’t working in the provision of healthcare for PWD.
