“This includes Inclusive Living, Employment, Education, Early Childhood Intervention, Person-Centred Technology, Workforce Development and Human Resources, Arts, Culture & Sport, and Policy Impact. We believe that support services play a key role in enabling people to enjoy their human rights on an equal basis, beyond disability or any other factor.

EASPD’s mission is to deliver the implementation of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities by supporting its members in the design, development and set-up of models of support, responsive to individual needs and wishes.”
