In April 2001, the Labour/Alliance Government launched the New Zealand Disability Strategy. The strategy’s vision is for a society that values the lives of people with disabilities and enhances their full participation in society. "Pathways to Inclusion" is an important step towards realising that vision. It signals a new direction for vocational services, aimed at achieving greater participation of people with disabilities in employment and in our communities.
