Linda is excited to be working with Family Advocacy in the role of Capacity Development Coordinator within the Resourcing Inclusive Communities initiative.

Her association with Family Advocacy began almost 30 years ago, shortly after the birth of her son Jacob, who has disability and complex support needs. Linda has served on the Family Advocacy management committee and, as a Family Leader, has been involved in systemic advocacy as well as advocating for Jacob.

She also has experience as a support coordinator and has worked as a trainer and consultant to the disability sector. Linda has developed a high level of knowledge and expertise of the NDIS sector and what it takes for people with disability to lead good lives included in the community as active and valued citizens.
