Independent Living Assessment (ILA) Advisory Committee: Members Wanted
Background
ILA was established in January 2020 by Indigo Australasia Incorporated (formerly Independent Living Centre WA). Some services previously provided by the Independent Living Centre WA (ILC) are now delivered by ILA in partnership with Indigo, including:
- AT Chat
- Grants (Disability Equipment Grant and Equipment for Living Grant)
- Regional Assessment Services
- Sector Support and Development
- NDIS Clinical Advisory.
ILA’s services support people with disability, older people, carers, health professionals and the aged care sector. Our Vision is “a community in which all abilities are valued, where people have the knowledge, tools and confidence to participate”.
About the ILA Advisory Committee
To be true to our vision we have created the ILA Advisory Committee, which will provide the ILA Board with a lived experience perspective on disability. It is anticipated that this will provide ILA management and the ILA Board with fresh insights on emerging issues for people with disability in the community ILA aims to service.
We are looking for active members of the disability community who have lived experience of disability and use assistive technology in their everyday life. Further, ILA Advisory Committee members must have well established networks across the disability community and be able to facilitate introductions and explore new business concepts.
Responsibilities
Responsibilities of the ILA Advisory Committee members will include:
- Develop an understanding of ILA’s business, market and sector trends.
- Supply high quality objective advice from a lived-experience perspective to support the ILA Board’s decision-making.
- Provide management with insights and ideas which can only come with distance from the day-to-day operations.
- Encourage and support the exploration of new business ideas.
- Act as a resource for management and ILA Board members.
- Monitor business performance and challenge management to consider options for improving the business.
Meeting frequency: once per quarter for up to two hours, via video-conference.
Term of membership: 12 months. An honorarium payment will be made for attendance/contribution.
