    How You Can Be Involved & Our Campaign Work

    Getting Involved in Advocacy

    Our Representative Advocacy team works collaboratively with our Advocacy Advisory Group to highlight and speak up about the issues that impact people with spinal and neuro conditions.

    Alongside this, our Systemic Advocacy team shine a light on national and state issues that affect people with SCI and other neuro conditions through dialogues, submissions, policy briefs and engagement in stakeholder working groups.

    We don’t just talk, we listen too.

    Your story is important. You can get involved by joining a local group (we have local community groups meeting across NSW and in the ACT), an online forum or workshop or by joining our advocacy community and receiving our monthly email communications.

    Our monthly communications update you on our advocacy initiatives, consultations, research, SCIA priorities and more. Use the contact us form to sign up to our advocacy mailing list.

    If you have an important issue you would like to talk to us about you can contact our Representative Advocate. Frequently raised issues inform Advocacy Campaigns that raise awareness, influence decisions and mobilise support.

    Navigate below to join one of our local face-to-face Advocacy events, read about our campaigns, and learn more about how you can get involved.

    Accessible Housing

    For many people with disabilities, accessible housing can hard to find. SCIA is working with real estate agencies to change the narrative with just three immediate and simple actions, so real estate agencies can ensure housing access is clear from the front door – meaning people with disabilities don’t get turned away from inspections due to a lack of information.
