Rights Information and Advocacy Centre (RIAC) and the Barwon Disability Resource Council (BDRC) have officially merged as of 20 May, 2024.
The merger will consolidate their capabilities in the face of mounting challenges, particularly the inadequacy of funding and rising compliance costs. It will also intensify advocacy and support for individuals with disabilities, as well as their families and caregivers, across the Barwon and Geelong region.
A referral for advocacy can be made through the RIAC website https://www.riac.org.au. Clients can self refer.
