LEAD is an organisation that brings together three services that have operated in the ACT region for over 15 years.

Why change?
The easy answer is we wanted to be different. The development of LEAD is more than just the shuffling of deck chairs; it’s a whole new way of thinking about the way we do business.

In March 2007 we began our journey to becoming LEAD. Our newly established Access, Employment, Contracting, and Development teams are designed to work more closely together based on our person centred planning model. We have designed an organisational structure that can respond holistically using the strengths of our people to plan, develop and implement person centred services for people who have a disability.

LEAD has over 400 clients and 60 staff. And we’re growing.

As we grow and change, our goal has been to maintain a culture of continuous improvement and stay true to our vision statement; “We strive for equality and inclusion for all”

LEAD is an organisation where you can LIVE the life you choose, EXPERIENCE success and be allowed to fail, ACCESS all our community has to offer, and DEVELOP to become the greatest possible version of yourself.

LEAD is more than a new name. It’s a new organisation focussed on people, changing community attitudes to embrace diversity, promoting tolerance and improving opportunities for people who have a disability to participate and fulfil their potential as citizens

We invite you to join us on this exciting, often challenging journey.
