When a person has a disability every milestone they make is major and is Cause to Applaud. We are all about recognising their achievements and victories!
Businesses
Over one billion people have a disability. As a HR specialist I want to break down barriers for people with disabilities to enter the workforce. It is illegal for businesses to discriminate against someone who has a disability. Rather than name and shame such companies let’s focus on the positive.
As a community let’s recognise the businesses that are employing disabled staff as they are making a change for the future!
Athletes
To be a Paralympian is a major achievement compared toa normal Olympic athlete!
Our athletes with a disAbility deserve recognition, whether they win or lose. They have overcome a barrier to be an athlete. Give them a shout out and recognition because they deserve it!
Daily Challenges
For some Australian’s with disAbilities it is the daily challenges that need to be Cause for Applause. Learning to do the following for the first time or having to relearn a skill can be a major victory. You or someone you know may need to learn to:
- Walk
- Talk
- Feed Themselves
- Dress Themselves
- Use the Toilet by themselves
Caregivers
The silent champions… the Caregiver!
You provide help to another person in need. As a parent or a spouse of someone with medical needs you need to be commended. Giving up your own needs and wants to help a family member takes dedication. You need to be encouraged and supported for your sacrifice and applauded!
We want you, the Caregiver to celebrate your victories in a community that understands. We don’t want you to feel they are not alone
