Around 200 parents will spend the night outside Leinster House in protest over the shortage of appropriate school places for autistic children. A new As I Am report finds most parents feel their children don’t get the same chance as non-autistic students.

@rtenews @rtenews please note, this 'federation' has completely ignored and continues to ignore Disabled Persons' Representative Organisations (DPROs) like ours and @vviireland
Why do they do this? You should really ask them, please

@DanaErlich @YosephHaddad This woman's nation Kills and Disables both Children, Women and Men.
May God forgive her and and her Evil Government, because we never can!

Happy to meet with @YosephHaddad who, as an Arab-Israeli, embodies unique features of Israel that many in Ireland are blindly ignoring and is proudly vocal in challenging the many
misperceptions & false narratives against Israel.

@Joan3103 But your association claimed to be Ireland's leading service provider & representative organisation for people with physical disabilities, but the IWA is not. Disabled people & our Carers can run their own Disabled Persons' Representative Organisations (DPRO), State please note!

It would be great if you talk to the NTA about their continued lack of meaningful consultation with people with disabilities, in their design of bus stops and other transport designs

Had very productive meetings with The NTA today to discuss. ☕️The need to bring back the Catering Cart on Sligo- Dublin train. 🚊An early commuter train from Longford that would arrive into Sligo at 8-8.30am. 🚊The opening up of The Spine of Connaught @WestOnTrackIRL #Sligo

If the Head of the HSE is going to post about child disability services parents should be allowed reply. Why does @BernardGloster not allow replies is he afraid parents might challenge him? @CarrollJennifer

I was encouraged today leading Day 1 of 3 direct engagements with me on making immediate improvements to children’s disability services. 200+ professionals from all over Ireland @HSELive & funded partners debating tough questions about ourselves as service providers. Same tomorrow with another group and then day 3 with parents. We need all children’s services in HSE working together Disability Primary Care CAMHS. @dcediy @NormaFoleyTD1 @1Hildegarde @CarrollJennifer @MaryButlerTD Massive challenges for children and families but we can do better. This process is part of our commitment in Programme for Government

@DisabilityFed Why don't you celebrate Disabled Persons' Representative Organisations (DPROs) like ours and @vviireland?
This is not a rhetorical question @DisabilityFed BTW

We’re kicking off the celebration of our Self-Advocacy Toolkit – co-designed by and for our community.
The toolkit is the result of collaboration between self-advocates, frontline staff, DFI teams, and member organisations across the country.

Hello Mr @BernardGloster. Why wasn't our Disabled Persons' Representative Organisation (DPRO) for physically impaired people of every age NOT invited by you and your team to these 'direct engagements'?
Physical Impairment Ireland (PII) is not a DPRO for 'children of a lesser God'

Irish Wheelchair Association (IWA) is supposedly one of Ireland's leading service providers and representative organisations for people with physical disabilities.
IWA does NOT represent our Disabled Persons' Representative Organisation for physically impaired people & never has!

@OgraFiannaFail @mmoynihantd @MaryHanafin1 @fiannafailparty This is how @MichealMartinTD treats parent carers 👇
We ask simple questions about his Disability Unit and we are met with
❌️ No
When we appeal that refusal we are ignored
So on we go to @OICIreland
He had plenty to say about Unit to @OCO_ireland - why not to us parents?
