Disability Services Australia

Mission / Objective

Disability Services Australia (DSA) is a one of Australia's largest and most respected not-for-profit organisations providing community support and employment services for more than 2,000 people with a disability each year.

Our purpose is to enhance the lives of people with a disability and our vision is to maximise opportunities for people with a disability to experience choice, inclusion and achievement.

From our beginnings in a rented workshop in 1956, employing seven people with a disability, we have grown to become a leader in the disability field. We are a professional and flexible organisation that has been able to adapt to changing political and economic circumstances. We focus on meeting individual needs and achieving positive outcomes.

Services

Disability Services Australia is committed to a person centred approach. We provide a wide range of skills development, accommodation, training and employment solutions which support people with a disability to achieve their goals and live their own independent and successful lives.
