What Is a Disability Advocate?

Independent, on your side

A disability advocate is an independent professional who helps people with disabilities understand their rights, navigate complex systems, and ensure their voices are heard. They work on your behalf to protect your interests and help you access the services and support you need.

Disability advocates are independent from service providers — including Kaya Care WA — and government agencies, so you receive unbiased support and representation.

How can an advocate help you?

  • Independent, unbiased advice about your NDIS rights and entitlements
  • Representation and support at the Administrative Review Tribunal (ART) for plan reviews and appeals
  • Help lodging and managing complaints with providers, government departments and services
  • Rights protection when dealing with service providers and government agencies
