Child Safe Statement

People With disabilities WA Inc. is committed to the safety, wellbeing, and empowerment of all children and young people who may engage with our services, staff, or volunteers. While our primary advocacy work focuses on adults with disability, we acknowledge that children and young people may be present in our environments or impacted by our work. We have zero tolerance for child abuse and actively work to create a child-safe culture. Our full Child Safe Statement can be found in Our Policies.
