Local government engagement toolkit
Ending Abuse through Simple Interventions (E.A.S.I)
This toolkit enables NSW local councils to drive continued and sustainable action to prevent and respond to abuse, neglect and exploitation of older people and adults with disability in their family, home and community.
E.A.S.I toolkit
Ending Abuse through Simple Interventions has been designed and informed by practices that are known to strengthen community capacity and raise awareness about abuse of older people and adults with disability in their family, home and community.
The Ageing and Disability Commission encourages all organisations and services to consider what works for them and their community to better detect and respond to abuse. In particular, we believe that local councils play a significant role in supporting initiatives that better protect and promote of the rights of older people and adults with disability in their local area to live free from abuse.
