Disability Information & Resource Centre's 30th birthday!
Three decades of providing information and support for people with disability in SA
Connecting Up congratulates the Disability Information & Resource Centre (DIRC) on reaching its 30th anniversary. DIRC was established in 1982, just one year after Connecting Up and our organisations have been closely aligned during the past 3 decades.
DIRC has a great history of support for individuals with disability and their families. It has also done much to help community organisations in the disability sector through the provision of a meeting place and through information dissemination.
DIRC is known for its specialised library, comprehensive Disability Directory, current awareness service, meeting and conference facilities, forums and expos and, more recently, case management services. Library staff are experts in providing information about disability and related services. They regularly assists people from all sectors of the community including people with disability, their relatives, friends and carers, people who work in the disability sector, students, health professionals and others.
Keep up with DIRC via Facebook and Twitter and make sure your networks are aware of the valuable work they do.
