The Voice of Queenslanders with Disability report provides insights gathered from a sample of 291 Queenslanders with disability, 117 family/carers and 34 organisational representatives who engaged with the research survey. Queenslanders shared authentically and transparently with us about what is going well and what is challenging across many aspects of their lives. As the first survey to collect stories across all seven outcome areas of Queensland’s Disability Plan 2022-2027: Together, a Better Queensland2 and Australia’s Disability Strategy 2021-2031,3 diverse and sometimes divergent perspectives were shared. While hundreds of people shared their perspectives, there is no single ‘voice of disability’ in Queensland and it is important to recognise that while this report presents key findings, it does not represent all disability experiences throughout the state.
