This project will contribute to healthy, productive ageing by people with chronic disabilities. This group are living longer and will retire from their disability-specific supported employment and day program services. They then risk social exclusion, loneliness and associated poor health outcomes. This project will provide training and support to local community groups and voluntary work settings, to increase community capacity to support this group to participate actively in and contribute to their community in retirement. This will result in increased participation by this group and improvements in their well-being. Training resources developed by the project will be available to disability service providers nationally.

该项目将促进慢性残疾人健康、有所作为的老龄化。这一群体的寿命更长，将从残疾人特定的支助就业和日间方案服务中退休。然后，他们面临社会排斥、孤独和相关的健康状况不佳的风险。该项目将为当地社区团体和志愿工作环境提供培训和支持，以提高社区能力，支持这一群体在退休后积极参与社区并为社区做出贡献。这将增加这一群体的参与，改善他们的福祉。该项目开发的培训资源将提供给全国的残疾人服务提供者。
