Disability Access and Inclusion Plan 2020-2025

A key goal of all Local Governments is to build strong communities. Strong communities are friendly and welcoming places where everyone can experience a sense of belonging, feel valued, and make their contribution.

The overarching goal of the Disability Access and Inclusion Plan (DAIP) is to provide equitable access and inclusion to all services, facilities, functions, and information provided by the Shire of Esperance by identifying and addressing barriers that restrict or prevent the full participation of people with a disability.

The concept of “equity” means the Shire of Esperance is working toward an environment where people with a disability, their carers, and families can access and participate in all aspects of community life without having to contend with unreasonable or unnecessary barriers.

Addressing the issues that affect people with a disability is not an easy task; the Shire of Esperance is committed to working toward equity for all members of the community. This DAIP provides guidance to the Shire of Esperance on issues within the community and how to overcome them to promote inclusivity for all.

We encourage you to read the Shire of Esperance Disability Access and Inclusion Plan 2025-2030.
