At Inclusion Melbourne we have a vision for people with intellectual disabilities sharing the benefits of living in the broader community. We want to give people the ability to feel comfortable in the community, recognise their contribution and help the community welcome and build long-term relationships with them. If you share this vision, we want to hear from you.
