14 June 2013 - Seminar: DISABILITY AND RETIREMENT: INCLUSIVE AND ACTIVE AGEING

Older Australians with a disability are working in open employment and in Australian Disability Enterprises (ADEs), but many know little about retirement and are ill-prepared for their third age. What will they do when they are no longer working? Will they be socially isolated and bored or will they enjoy an active, socially connected retirement? How can disability service providers support these individuals to plan for and achieve a fulfilling retirement? Will supporting these individuals to reduce their days at work actually enhance productivity at ADEs?
