What we are seeking to achieve

People with intellectual disability experience good health, housing, and wellbeing

People with intellectual disability experience good physical and mental health.
People with intellectual disability are connected to and are citizens in their community, including through the dignity of work.
They experience ordinary life outcomes and have the opportunity to do things on a similar basis to their peers. This includes friendships and relationships.
People with intellectual disability have a home and have a reasonable standard of material wellbeing. They have a financial plan for their future.
People with intellectual disability are supported to age well, including proactive and preventative care.

Support to advocate for my rights, including resources to meet my needs.
Control over my health and body.
Control of my money and my finances.
Support that responds to me, not me fitting into a service.
Control of where I live and who I live with (include tenancy and ownership options).

The issues that are important to people with intellectual disability are recognised and are part of public conversations.
The voices that are heard and recognised represent a broad range of people with intellectual disability.
Decision makers at all levels seek out the voice of people with intellectual disability.
The outcomes for people with intellectual disability improve over time.

There are genuine partnerships with Māori including tangata whaikaha Māori, whānau, hapū, and iwi.
Māori are supported to be Māori and to participate in te ao Māori.
Staff who are Māori are valued and supported.
Staff have the capability to work in both worlds - te ao Māori and te ao Pākehā.
The gap between the outcomes for Māori and Pākehā with intellectual disability reduces over time.
