Abstract

The right of people with disabilities to be fully included in society is a well-established policy goal. Yet, people with disabilities continue to be excluded from many social experiences that people without disabilities often take for granted. In the Transition to Retirement research project, we supported 27 older Australian adults with a lifelong disability to join local community or volunteer groups. Here we share one person’s story.
