		<description><![CDATA[At seventeen Tasha Amadi became a quadriplegic after a diving accident in March 2006 when training for a school swimming gala. An avid swimmer and scholar admired by her peers Tasha’s world was turned upside down.” The moment I hit the water I couldn’t feel my body. I floated around in the water face down, unable to get up.

The chances of an average DSP recipient obtaining ongoing full time employment in a mainstream job within 12 months of participating in an employment program is less than one in five.

		<description><![CDATA[Ableism means “to be normal.” By creating a "normal" category prejudice social attitudes and discriminatory behaviors toward persons with a disability are also created.
