The only advocacy organisation in Victoria dedicated to supporting disabled young people to achieve their human rights.

About YDAS
The Youth Disability Advocacy Service is an advocacy organisation that works with disabled young people who are aged 12 to 25 in Victoria.
We talk with disabled young people about what matters most to you. We then help the government and other organisations understand those issues so they can treat disabled young people fairly.

What are your rights?
As a disabled young person, you have the right to be included, make your own choices, feel safe, and get the support you need. -
What is advocacy?
Advocacy means speaking up for yourself or someone else. It’s about making sure your voice is heard, your rights are respected, and you get fair treatment. -

Individual advocacy is when someone supports you with a specific problem. An advocate can help you speak up, understand your options, and stand by you when talking to services, schools, or other systems.
