CF Together works one to one with you to provide support for self-advocacy, as well as advocating on behalf of you when needed.
We can assist you to exercise your rights and achieve the outcomes you want, helping make sure you are not disadvantaged due to any disability, your age, gender, sexual preference or your cultural background. We also have the expertise and experience in handling cases that often impact people living with CF.
There may be times when you feel it is hard to speak up for yourself or know what to do, so an advocate can help you:
- clarify what is happening and sort out any confusion or misunderstandings
- understand what your choices are to address the concerns that you have
- contact the relevant service, discuss the issue and the options for solutions support you to negotiate a complaints process
- support you at meetings
- write a support letter.
