Duration: 23 mins 20 secs
This video allows people with a range of disabilities to speak for themselves about how service providers, support workers and colleagues can learn to communicate better with them. Manners are not something that come naturally, we all have to learn them.
Project developed by Fran Haarsma Productions and funded under the Workplace English Language and Literacy (WELL) Program by the Australian Government Department of Education, Employment and Workplace Relations.
