1STATE DISABILITY INCLUSION DRAFT
A community is comprised of different ethnic background people along with age, race,
gender and different geographic origin as well. However, all these differences commonly
comprised of another aspect that is disability and the disability can be of mental or physical or
both. On this context it can be stated that the needs of different policies for the health care or
other type of facilities for these disabled people. A study states that 22% of South Australian
women, 24% of South Australian male and 10% of South Australian children under 15 years old
found to be disabled which includes 3% disabled people from the Aboriginal and Torres Strait
Islander people (Khemka, Roberts and Higgins 2017). Thus it can be seen on the basis of the
data that a good amount of people face problems of disability whether that is physical or mental
disability they need special providences. In order to address this context the Australian
Government devised National Disability Strategy 2010-2020 which adopted the policies of
United Nation on the Rights of the Person with Disability. This strategy comprised of the
following aspects:
Respect dignity and individual in order to provide freedom to make their own choices
Eliminating discrimination
Effective participation and inclusion in society of everyone
Respect for difference and accepting every persons with disability
Equal opportunity for everyone
Access to resources equally
Gender equity

Respect for children with disability and respect the right of children with disability to provide
them with all facilities.
On the basis of these factors it can be said that the national Disability Strategy for the community
care depends on the equality and non-discriminating factors along with providing facilities for
the disabled people (Violence and Wales 2017). However, the strategy needs to be included with
or follow the legislative acts that are the The Disability Discrimination Act 1992, The National
Disability Insurance Scheme Act 2013, The Disability Services Act 1986 and other acts as well.
These legislations are needed to be incorporated in the process of providing the disabled persons
with utmost facility and also monitoring the community health services in order to determine the
flaws or any kind of malpractice that affects or discriminates the disables from other people. The
Disability Inclusion Act 2018 which was recently passed was included in the strategy by the state
Governments (McPherson et al. 2017). Another aspect of this state disability inclusion is to
provide the eligible candidates with all facilities however, for this the Governments needs
collaborative actions and this would be termed as the discrimination among the disable people as
well thus in order to provide equity among them The Disability Discrimination Act 1992 needed
to be included as well. Thus it can be stated that the policy of the State Disability Inclusion
needed to be comprised of equality and eliminating any kind of discrimination, providing the
disable people with different facilities in terms of education, employment, subsidy and free
health care with primary prioritization (Bigby, Tilbury and Hughes 2018). All these aspects
would be monitored with the help of the above mentioned legislations. The argument focuses on
the flaws and the improvement of the policy. In order to determine the flaws of the policy it
needed to be understand the barriers of the policy as the environmental barriers which can be
effectively create a distance between the society and the disabled person, attitudinal barrier
