The Disability Royal Commission is holding more hearings today.

This week's hearings are looking at the use of drugs to control the behaviour of people with disability.

They are also looking at "behaviours of concern" - sometimes called challenging behaviours.

This is likely to be yet another very upsetting week with some very disturbing stories and testimony by people with disability and their families.

☎️ If you find yourself struggling please reach out for help - there are some numbers pinned to the top of this page which you might find helpful.

👉 If you would like to read more about the hearings or see the witness list for this week you can find it here - disability.royalcommission.gov.au/public-hearings/public-hearing-6

👉 And you can watch the live stream of the hearings on the Royal Commission's website - disability.royalcommission.gov.au/

The hearings start at 10am today.

Please look after yourselves ❤️

Another woman stands in front of the Commissioners. She is facing them with her back to the camera. She is wearing a black and white dress with large flowers on it. She is looking off to the side.) ... See MoreSee Less
