Join a Community Hub

Barwon. Bendigo. Melbourne Outer East.

WDV’s Local Leadership Hubs are for women and gender diverse people with all kinds of disabilities. Hub members come together as a group to explore advocacy and leadership.

We aim to make our Hubs friendly and respectful spaces for members to connect, share their experiences and gain information on their rights.

Hub members might also get involved in local matters that impact the lives of women and non-binary people with disabilities.

There is no cost to join a Hub.
