The Inclusive Movement

Empowering Communities Through Disability Inclusion

At The Inclusive Movement, we believe true inclusion means more than just access — it means belonging, participation, and thriving in all areas of life.
Led by lived experience and grounded in a human rights framework, we work alongside individuals, families, organisations, and communities to create a society where people with disability and neurodivergent individuals are celebrated, supported, and empowered.

Join us in creating a future where inclusion is not the exception, but the expectation.

A movement for change

The Inclusive Movement is a disability-led organisation dedicated to advancing social inclusion, accessibility, and rights-based support across Australia.
Our work is driven by a combination of lived experience, professional expertise, and a strong belief that every person deserves the opportunity to participate fully in community life.

Through consulting, training, advocacy, and community programs, we are building more equitable, inclusive environments — one connection at a time.

Advocates for disability inclusion

We firmly believe that everyone deserves equal opportunities and a sense of belonging. We work as inclusion advocates to drive social change and create inclusive spaces within our communities. Our focus is on fostering positive outcomes for people with disabilities by offering a range of services and initiatives.

Inclusive Training Hub: Empowering Communities Through Education

At The Inclusive Movement, we believe education is key to lasting inclusion.
Our Inclusive Training Hub offers a range of online and in-person courses, workshops, and resources, designed by people with lived experience of disability and neurodivergence.
Whether you’re an educator, employer, service provider, or community leader, our Hub can help you build more inclusive, accessible, and welcoming environments.

Why Inclusion Matters

Inclusion strengthens our communities, drives innovation, and improves wellbeing for everyone.
When we remove barriers and reframe systems, we create spaces where people can live authentically, participate fully, and achieve their aspirations.

Inclusion is not about helping people "fit in" — it’s about creating environments where everyone belongs.

Quality and Inclusion, Assured

The Disability Service Standards (DSS) in Australia are a set of guidelines that outline the expectations of quality service delivery for people with disabilities. The standards were developed by the Australian Government and are designed to ensure that people with disabilities receive the same level of care and support as other members of the community.

At The Inclusive Movement, we are proud to adhere to these standards, placing the well-being and needs of individuals with disabilities at the forefront. Our commitment to delivering exceptional care and support sets us apart as a trusted provider in the industry.

Have peace of mind knowing that both you and your family will receive high-quality, inclusive services.
