Your rights

	Anti-discrimination laws and disability rights It is against the law to treat people unfairly because of disability. The Disability Discrimination Act and other laws are in place to protect your rights.

	Power of attorney and advance directives There may be a time when it's necessary to appoint someone to manage your financial, medical or personal affairs.

	Making complaints From time-to-time, it may be necessary to make a complaint if you feel you have been treated unfairly because of your disability or you are unhappy about services you receive.
