Disability Funding Crisis

Irish Wheelchair Association has joined forces with eight national disability organisations to call for:

1. An extra €20m to cover the urgent shortfall in funding currently faced by our services. 
2. A complete reform of how HSE budgets for the sector are agreed. 
3. Ensure that the workers who run our services are paid the same as HSE workers for doing the same job.

The Disability Action Coalition was set up ahead of Election 2020 to call for the needs of Section 39 organisations and the people we serve to be addressed urgently.

Together we are campaigning for a new and secure future for our underfunded organisations.
