Multicultural Disability Services Program (MDSP)
The Multicultural Disability Services Program (MDSP) delivers flexible, creative, and individualised support services to people with disability, and families/carers, to live quality and meaningful lives of their choice in the community. MSC specialises in providing supports in language and culture where requested by a participant or family member with our workforce speaking over 75 languages. Our workforce is a representative of the people we support.
Our vision is an inclusive community that values diversity, guarantees the human rights of people with a disability and ensures that they:
- have equal opportunity and access to social and cultural events and activities in the community;
- develop their capacity, skills and knowledge to make positive contributions to the
community and thereby establish valued roles in the community; - enjoy healthy, enriching and meaningful relationships that embrace their own lifestyle choices; and
- are empowered to plan and make their own choices to improve their quality of life.
How Can We Help
- provide personal assistance to persons with a disability in their own home – e.g. assist with household tasks such as preparation of meals, cleaning, and more;
- assist with participating in community activities/events of their interests;
- provide mentoring support;
- provide culturally and linguistically appropriate support services to the person with a disability and their families/carers;
- facilitate the development and maintenance of relationships with family, friends and service providers;
- provide live-in carers (co-resident) who provide a range of support to enable autonomous living as much as possible;
- provide respite care in the community and residential settings; and
- provide transport in wheel-chair accessible vehicles.
Our support and service coordinators work alongside individuals and their families to co-design and co-produce support plans based on their unique needs, goals, aspirations and dreams.
This person-centred planning approach occurs in a supportive environment with the person with a disability and their family and carers. It is a holistic strength-based approach which offers hope, choice & control, and opportunities to fulfil their goals.
Our program values and recognises that a person with a disability and their families and carers are best placed to determine their needs. We respect their desire and capacity to self-direct their support plans and we facilitate the provision of supports accordingly.
