Description: Disability Day Programs: The Junction Works Disability<br />

Day Programs aim to develop skills for independence,<br />

recreation, social inclusion, and employment for adults with<br />

a disability. We provide support to Community Participation<br />

(CP) and Transition to Work (TTW) clients.<br />

Disability Case Management and Brokerage Program:<br />

Case managers will provide links to existing services,<br />

arrange the purchase of some brokerage services and<br />

assist people to develop and maintain links in the<br />

community. Priority Access is given to people who have an<br />

intellectual disability, have no other agencies involved, are<br />

at risk of entering the Juvenile Justice system, having<br />

ageing carers, and are at risk of becoming homeless.<br />

Disability Assistance Packages: Provide access to<br />

respite services for older carers over 60 and Indigenous<br />

carers over 45, who provide primary care for a person with<br />

a disability. DAP referrals are received through ADHC and<br />

allocated annually. The package is for one year only. Other<br />

community services can also broker respite support from<br />

the Junction works DAP program.<br />

Young People Leaving Care Program: Supports young<br />

people with an intellectual disability, aged 15years and<br />

over, who are in the care of Children’s Court for 12months<br />

or more and are requiring continued support through ADHC<br />

services. The Program Provides Case Management in Daily<br />

In-Home Support. Referrals are received through ADHC.<br />

Sibling Support Program: Provides support networks to<br />

young people aged between 8 to 18 years, who have a<br />

sibling with a disability. The main goal for the Sibling<br />

Support program is to support siblings to identify and use<br />

positive strategies for living with a brother(s) or sister(s)<br />

with a disability.<br />
