The NSW Emergency Contacts list was created to support people with disability and/or from CALD background in Western Sydney (Blacktown, Blue Mountains, The Hills, Hawkesbury, Penrith). It is available in 10 different languages: English, Arabic, Tibetan, Farsi, Hindi, Chinese Simplified, Nepali, Dari, Punjabi and Urdu, and was created as part of Project PlanAble, funded by the NSW Government's Community Resilience Innovation Program (CRIP)
Established in 2014, the SSI Arts & Culture program is inspired by the belief that everyone deserves the opportunity to develop their creative potential and participate meaningfully in the cultural life of a community— no matter where they come from, what language they speak, or their level of ability.
