NSW releases cultural and linguistic diversity strategy for disability and ageing
The NSW Department of Disability, Ageing and Home Care (DADHC) has released the CALD (Culturally and Linguistically Diverse) Strategy 2005-2008.
It details the key action areas the Department will be working on to “improve access to and responsiveness of programs and services for people from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds”.
A CALD Reference Group (consisting of representatives from the non-government sector and peak associations) has also been established by DADHC to ensure the Strategy is implemented effectively within key timeframes.
The CALD Strategy 2005-08 can be downloaded from the home page of the DADHC website http://www.dadhc.nsw.gov.au/DADHC
