Disability Self Help Grants
The Victorian Government’s commitment to strengthening communities is reflected in the provision of grants which support organisations, networks and partnerships to implement projects that advance the interests of their communities.
Disability Self Help Grants provide support to disability self help groups in continuing recognition of the vital role they play in strengthening communities.
The Disability Self Help Grants provide non-recurrent grants of up to $5,000 to disability self-help groups across the State to assist these groups to:
- Increase the capacity of people with a disability to live independently in their own community;
- Encourage a network of community peer support and information exchange for people with a disability and their families/carers; and
- Increase opportunities for self help groups to provide information and education on the conditions and problems that people with a disability experience.
