Who We Are
We aim to continue to create and maintain a culturally inclusive community through listening and learning from the participant and their family. That is why we will tailor our disability care in Melbourne, Victoria, to actively be engaged and have many lifestyle choices.
Your identity, culture, and diversity are valued, and you will be treated with the dignity and respect you deserve. We stand with the people from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds (CALD) who are hesitant to seek support due to language and culture barriers or other beliefs. Disability Diversity Care (DDCare) will offer you a service you enjoy and control.
