AFFORD (the Australian Foundation for Disability) is a not-for-profit organisation that is dedicated to helping people with additional needs. Our person-centred approach, in partnership with families and carers, enables over 1,300 people to lead richer, more rewarding lives. We provide day programs, skills development, transition to work training, supported and open employment, and accommodation for our clients. We also provide support and respite for carers. We provide the support, programs and facilities to help people develop their skills, their independence and their enjoyment of life. Most importantly, we have a ‘person centred and family focused’ approach. This means that the person with additional needs is at the centre of everything we do at AFFORD.
