Today on Disability Advocacy Matters - a podcast for Speaking Up for You - we’re speaking with SUFY Individual Advocate Nathasha Whittaker about some of the common problems she sees with the Health system and some of the difficulties  people with disabilities face when in the Health system.

Tash goes through what work she does at SUFY in this space, and how SUFY can help people with disability navigate this complex system. Together we will find out about some of the main issues she sees, and what people with disability can do to get assistance.

This episode was recorded and produced on the lands of the Turrbul and Jagerra people, and we pay our respects to elders past present and emerging. 

Speaking Up For You Inc. (SUFY) protects and defends vulnerable people with disability through individual advocacy to address injustices and make a positive and sustainable difference to their lives. It provides individual advocacy on behalf of vulnerable people with disability whose fundamental needs are not being met and whose human rights are being denied. 

Each episode of this series will feature practical insights on an aspect of disability advocacy.
