Change and Voluntary Disability Organisations

Change and Voluntary Disability Organisations
“Things do not change; we change.” - Henry David Thoreau
Below are the presentations from the Change and Voluntary Organisations, the profiles of the speakers and the timetable for the event.
Post AGM Event was held on 23rd May 2012 in F2 Centre, 3 Reuben Plaza, Rialto, Dublin 8.
Disability organisations are surrounded by change; the question for all of us to consider is how are we responding to this change? The Value for Money and Policy Review of Disability, the UN Convention on the Rights of People with Disabilities, the Universal Health Insurance and the HSE reports on Adult Day Services and on Congregated Settings are all signalling a fundamental change in how services will be funded and provided to people with disabilities.  The purpose of the discussion is to gain an understanding of the changes afoot and how best we can prepare ourselves for them.
Below are the presentations from the Change and Voluntary Organisations, the profiles of the speakers and the timetable for the event.
