The role of the Management Committee is to manage the organisation by affirming and promoting its vision, its purpose and its priorities. This is done in three ways:

  1. By developing and safeguarding the vision of advocacy and community living on behalf of people with disability,
  2. By managing the resources, energies, work, activities and wellbeing of the organisation as a whole,
  3. By managing the staff who work for the organisation.

The Management Committee currently consists of 5 parent members including 1 member from regional areas. The Committee meet formally once a month with regional members linked by phone. Each Committee Member takes on certain responsibilities according to their positions and expertise.
