The Charter, as it stands, is easily understandable and is set out in a logical format.
Women With Disabilities ACT believes that this Charter will play a pivotal role in the
lives of women with disabilities in the ACT.
While the charter will be of benefit to all people in regards to mental health, it will be
of particular relevance to women with disabilities in the territory because it will
provide them with a navigation tool for self advocacy within the mental health system.
Women with Disabilities ACT is currently working toward all women with disabilities
within the ACT having the right tools, confidence and ability to self advocate in all
forums in all ACT government and community sectors.
