Inclusion Ireland regularly sends submissions to the different governmental departments on topics that have been identified as a priority by its members. It includes areas like Housing, Education, Employment, Accessibility, Supported Decision Making and other key areas. We always seek active involvement from our members to ensure that their voices are at the heart of our submissions and reflect the barriers they face in their lives.
The annual Budget Submission is our most important submission as it touches on several aspects of our members’ lives. It relies on the responses we get from our members who choose what are the priorities and what we should ask for. This year, 600 people with an intellectual disability, family members and other supporters completed the survey.
