The Disability Discrimination Act has implications for all service providers and employers. The Health Education Board for Scotland (HEBS) intends to commission some training which is aimed at health promoting organisations (voluntary organisations, Health Boards, Primary Care, Community Education etc) to raise awareness of the act and the implications for the delivery of their services.
The training will be held in the Spring of 2001 at a venue in Scotland.

Disability Awareness Training for organisations
After many years of being involved with people who are perceived as different in the community,I am able to appreciate the difficulties that that people experience because of their differentness.
With the introduction of the Disability Discrimination Act,organisations need to develop their staff potential,in terms of the act,by raising their awareness of Disability issues thus providing equality for all.
