This project aims to improve the rights and wellbeing of young people with cognitive disability by exploring their relationship and interaction with paid support workers. The introduction of national individualised funding and support is a watershed in Australian disability policy. Understanding the role that paid support plays in the ongoing identity development of these young people is urgently needed to realise national policy aspirations for people with disability of rights, choice, inclusion and independence. Using social geography and recognition theory, the project expects to deliver new understanding and improved practice around how paid support relationships can foster mutual care, respect and value at a critically important time in young people’s lives.

该项目旨在通过探索患有认知障碍的年轻人与有偿支持工作者的关系和互动，改善他们的权利和福祉。引入国家个性化资助和支持是澳大利亚残疾政策的一个分水岭。为了实现国家政策对残疾人权利、选择、包容和独立的期望，迫切需要了解有偿支持在这些年轻人持续的身份发展中所起的作用。利用社会地理学和认知理论，该项目希望就有偿支持关系如何在年轻人生活中至关重要的时刻促进相互关心、尊重和价值提供新的理解和改进的实践。
